Fashion: Karl Comes to Conquer
(2 of 2)
"I felt like the time was right for me to be in America," Lagerfeld says. He has launched himself in the U.S. with characteristic gusto: setting up shop in the same loft building as Martha Stewart's office in New York City's Chelsea neighborhood, purchasing an apartment near Gramercy Park and hiring a team of designers headed by the stylist Melanie Ward, a former creative director for Helmut Lang. And the collection is all about Lagerfeld, from his signature on one T shirt to the photo of the designer as a young man on another. In a first for the fashion industry, Apple will offer a video podcast of Lagerfeld's show on iTunes.
But perhaps most auspicious of all, Europe's fashion prince has been asked to pay a visit to America's kingmaker. That's right, he's going on Oprah.
