After my first campaign you were asked on French television what you thought of me and you said you would have to meet me to truly know. I sent the interview to my French girl friend to translate and was elated you knew of my existence. Years later during fashion week in Paris you and your family walked into the restaurant my team and i were in and sat at the table next to us. All i could do was stare as this legend was sitting an arm stretch away. I got up and walked passed your table only to go to the bathroom and check my hair before strutting to your table and introducing myself. You told me you knew who i was and that the grace i walked with reminded you of a young Naomi Campbell. Wow.. those words will ring in my head forever. I’m happy i got to know what you thought of me. You’re greatly missed. Sending my love to the Lagerfeld family, you’re in my prayers

You brought so much beauty, style and grace to this world. Karl, you will forever be a true legend, an icon, an inspiration. It was such a thrill and a pleasure to have met you, to have worked with you, and to have experienced the amazing times when you would photograph my girls for your beautiful campaigns. There will never be another like you, my dear friend, and you will be truly missed. #KarlLagerfeld @karllagerfeld

So honored to walk my first @burberry show last night. ❤️ @riccardotisci17- I think all things come at the right time, and I will never forget this first show together. Thank you for letting me be a part of this incredible LFW moment, for giving a cast from all over the world a creative space to show support for British Youth and, even between the two sets, feel the duality of the strong statement you made with this collection. I could not have imagined a more dreamy look and evening. Thank you for everything @italia3bis @katy_england @guidopalau @patmcgrathreal and all the teams !!!

And the fashion queen herself, Anna Wintour, released a statement saying, ” Today the world lost a giant among men. Karl was so much more than our greatest and most prolific designer- his creative genius was breathtaking and to be his friend was an exceptional gift. Karl was brilliant, he was wicked, he was funny, he was generous beyond measure, and he was deeply kind. I will miss him so very much”.
