“Before Karl, we all looked to couture for inspiration and direction. Now, through his work, fashion originates from the street, the media—anywhere. This has resulted in exciting collections that are provocative and sensual. His unrelenting experimentation in fashion, art and photography offers us endless possibilities yet is always grounded and relevant.”

Lagerfeld also has a special edition customized teddy bear, valued at over €1000. Build-a-bear ain’t got nothin’ on this.
“As an avid photographer, Lagerfeld often shoots his own press photos, and is sometimes called “Kaiser Karl” by the press. His personal trademarks include a fan, a long ponytail for his powdered-white hair, and sunglasses. He is a uniquely confident man and speaks German, French, English, and Italian.”

His shots of Mariah Carey for V Magazine:
“Lagerfeld currently designs for three companies: his own label, Chanel, and furs for Fendi of Italy.”

Karl is of course, the original bad ass. And he’s a good photographer, but … *stalker mode* I peeked at your Flickr and noticed you have a spectacular eye for colour and contrast. Who are your models?
Btw … $1300 teddy bears are only worth it if they come with a free cupcake, replicas of bad asses or not.
Haha… thanks! My models are actually just friends and classmates, it’s all for fun.
Oh fasho, I’d personally have to switch out the cupcake with a cookie or something though, haha. :X
Mariah Carey is the best singer out there..i’ve been playing her music since i was like 4 years old
Mariah Carey’s latest perfume sounds exciting. I cant wait to get them for myself. I always follow Mariah’s records and news about her life. She is really an amazing person.
I saw the pictures of Mariah Carey when she sang at the Today show. She looks fantastic and happy. I just love her so much
Mariah Carey should be more cautious with her shoes so that falling over in her Singapore concert wont happen again. She performed well even she was hurt. I love you Mariah
