Jeremiah Manolo
Manolo says, the Manolo he has been sounding the alarum about this for the years, only now, finally, when the threat it is perhaps too grave, do the peoples they begin to listen.
Lagerfeld Aims for Global DominationManolo says, They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea; and they ride upon horses, set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter of Zion. We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail. Go not forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and fear is on every side. O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.
Karl Lagerfeld is going global -- again.
The white-haired German designer with the ponytail and dark glasses has become the most famous man in fashion thanks to his designs for Chanel and his collaboration with Swedish high-street retailer Hennes & Mauritz on a limited edition collection.
Now he plans to propel his lesser-known own label, Lagerfeld Gallery, to the same level of fame.
"What I like is to be everywhere, to design collections everywhere and to have this kind of ubiquity in every sense of the word,"

Manolo, I am one who has only recently discovered your inimitable shoe blog, so I know absolutely nothing of your "history" with the Lagerfeld. Could you kindly explain to me--newcomer that I am--exactly WHY it is that you feel the way you do about El Diablo? I have scanned your archives, but I cannot find the REASONS, only the fear and loathing he elicits in you. PLEASE enlighten me, I must know!
Thanking you in advance,

I'm sorry, but I cannot gird myself in sackcloth...it's itchy.
And ashes? No...goes with nothing in my closet. I will think of another thing to lament the evil known as The Lagerfeld. A poncho? Perhaps clogs?
I thought the Lagerfeld Gallery runway show was hideous to say the least.
It may amuse the Manolo to know that the Lagerfeld's efforts at H&M were not "all that and the bag of the chips". There are many many Lagerfeld items on the sale at the great discount of the 70% now. The Lagerfeld is not the behomoth of the fashion that many say he is. Many people saw his things at the H&M and said, "Humph".
