Karl Lagerfeld returns to Pitti Uomo

Karl Lagerfeld will return to Pitti Uomo to showcase the immersive World of KARL brand experience, with a focus on men’s ready-to-wear, footwear and accessories.
Exclusively at the KARL LAGERFELD booth at the Fortezza Da Basso, visitors will also have the opportunity to see original designs from A Tribute to Karl: The White Shirt Project. To honor Karl’s legacy, a group of artists, actors, models, designers and friends each created a bespoke edition of his iconic white shirt silhouette. Reflecting on their own experiences, they reimagined the shirts to artfully express their personal anecdotes and memories.

 

The exhibition will include designs by Cara DelevingneLewis HamiltonTommy HilfigerSebastien JondeauKate Moss and Takashi Murakami, amongst others. It will also feature the shirt by Carine Roitfeld, who is Style Advisor of the Maison KARL LAGERFELD and, as the project’s curator, shared her instinctive foresight as someone who closely understood Karl’s creative vision.
At the booth, guests will also be invited to enjoy a unique personalization service.
