  &quot;Yes, Karl was great in so man fashion-centric ways, but as a person he never seemed to develop kindness, open-mindedness and love. And so I question whether there was ever a &apos;line of beauty&apos;. Not in his tweed suits, his fur jackets or his pen strokes, but in his heart and his mind&quot;<br>Oof, hitting the nail right on the head.

  You need more recognition from the fashion industry. You are informed, insightful, and inspiring! <br>This piece is an excellent example of how serious you are about fashion, fashion history and all the players. <br>Incredible journalism!

  I love how this video essay really stayed on the topic of the work and the fashion and was not centered around the man. Your video essays are truly some of my favorites. The work and research are obviously there and I just love your personality.

  Nothing against the work of Lagerfeld, but I wish they&apos;d chosen instead to pay tribute to Vivienne Westwood. When I think icon, among other descriptors, I think of someone who transcends the boundaries of their field. While the punk aesthetic was not her invention, you can&apos;t mistake a Westwood look for anyone else&apos;s.

  Luke isnt a student of fashion he is a student of history as always love how his in depth coverage of one person can turn into a full fledged history of European fashion houses ❤

  Thank you for this amazing video!<br><br>I’m a plus sized giant of a woman who is obsessed with collecting vintage Chanel from backwater places around the world (I’m a designer thrifting fiend haha). It will never fit me, it was never designed to fit me. Karl would have hated me and likely so would Coco Chanel herself. But I love it. I love the sordid history, the excellent quality, the house codes…. Everything!<br><br>And yes, the knowledge that my collecting of these pieces in a ‘budget’ manner (for designer anyway) would make them turn over in their graves is slightly delightful 😂<br><br>Thank you again! Love your videos and your research! Your videos are always amazing!

  Why am I obsessed with the Fendi sister&apos;s names. Paola, Alda, Franca, Carla, Anna - what a cool set of names!!

  This is absolutely fascinating. I&apos;m not a fashion girl but I love to learn interesting things about interesting people and you are a compelling and engaging storyteller. Sitting here in my work swag sweatshirt and old pajama pants, nodding and muttering in agreement as you describe Karl&apos;s background and come-up as a designer in his own right. I stop everything for Luke when he&apos;s got something to learn me.

  In terms of Chanel, they had been after Karl for a really long time, they offered him the role several times, but he only went over to Chanel after they agreed to double his salary and give him all of his requirements (like starting the archive of work) for him to start. Obviously it was a good bet for the Wertheimers, but it was a risk at the time and it took a good few people to convince them to go with Karl, at least until Alain met with Karl in his apartment and really understood his brilliance
