1. Vogue tips its hat to Karl Lagerfeld in spectacular May issue

Vogue’s May issue is a celebration of Karl Lagerfeld. For the cover story, shot at Paris’s @le_grand_palais amid a sweeping renovation, we asked ten designers inspired by Lagerfeld’s visionary work to interpret it anew. Their creations appear on ten of the models that Lagerfeld loved most: Anok Yai, Shalom Harlow, Kendall Jenner, Liu Wen, Adut Akech, Natalia Vodianova, Naomi Campbell, Amber Valletta, Gigi Hadid, and Devon Aoki.

In the lead-up to the 2023 #MetGala—where the dress code is simply, fittingly, “in honor of Karl”—Vogue also looks ahead to the opening of @metcostumeinstitute’s spring exhibition, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” The exhibition, featuring more than 150 objects spanning Lagerfeld’s six-decade career at Chanel, Chloé, Fendi, and his own label, will explore his unique working methodology. You can read and watch the interactive digital story and behind the scenes content here.
