Like Gianni Agnelli from FIAT. The king of sprezzatura.

Maybe the joke is on us. Why cover a 10k, 20k, 30k+ watch with at most a $100-$300 shirt?

I doubt anything lagerfeld wore was $300 except for maybe his socks.

You have that reversed, Karl set the style and Agnelli followed it.

A lot to say to explain that - I’m guessing you are fairly young - the subject being vast and space being tight, suffice it to be reflected by this quote by KL, “I’m a down to Earth guy; just not this Earth.”

RIP And Godspeed - I’m guessing either St. Peter or Satan (depending upon your opinion) are sporting a new sash or other sartorial gewgaws now.

One of the titans in the fashion industry. He did it his way, and the RO was no exception. He will be missed.

his complete life-style was absolute cool --- today there was an article in a German newspaper that he payed inkognito for the operation for a boy whose parents couldn´t afford it and he should have bought a barbershop for his hairdresser who became unemployed etc

R.I.P.
