What a CreepSeason 24, Episode 9Karl LagerfeldKarl Lagerfeld was a fashion designer best known for heading Chanel for over 30 years. He was one of the first designers to channel their fashion leadership into becoming a public figure. He developed this image as “the Kaiser,” a too-cool snob with dark sunglasses, fingerless gloves, and a ponytail that got him almost as much attention as his designs for Chanel.Sure, he was a fashion icon, but our man Karl was also fatphobic, racist, and misogynistic. What a creep.Sources for this episode: AP NewsBusiness of FashionChoupette’s InstagramThe Daily BeastThe GuardianJezebelThe New York TimesThe New York TimesThe New York Times TimeYahoo NewsYour TangoWikipediaBe sure to follow us on social media.
