New York [US]May 2 (ANI): Cara Delevingne paid the best tribute to legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld at Met Gala 2023.
As this year’s “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty” theme honors the late designer, it was an emotional night for Delevingne, who was Lagerfeld’s close friend and muse, Page Six reported.
“I cried a little bit on the way here,” the 30-year-old told Vogue interviewers on the carpet.
To honor Lagerfeld, the Only Murders In The Building star rocked a fresh white button-up shirt — a firm favorite of the designer — with dramatic sleeves and a plunging neckline. Delevingne paired the shirt-dress with thigh-high black leather leg warmers, black strappy sandals, and matching fingerless black leather gloves, another Lagerfeld signature.
After the Chanel creative director passed away in 2019, Delevingne posted a heartbreaking tribute on her Instagram, writing, “He changed my life, he believed in me when so many others didn’t including myself … He is a visionary, a genius but more than that…. a dear friend.
Delevingne has walked several Chanel runways, even opening a show featuring Lagerfeld’s final designs for the house a month after his death.
In 2022, she created a capsule collection with Lagerfeld’s clothing brand of the same name, called Cara Loves Karl, as a tribute to their relationship.
Before the big night, she went down memory lane, posting a montage of videos of Lagerfeld and Chanel on the catwalk.
Jeremy Pope also penned a beautiful tribute to Lagerfeld. The actor wore a stunning, carpet-like train on the red carpet.
The dress, designed by Balmain, featured a giant photo of Karl Lagerfeld printed around the train, an homage to the evening’s theme “In Honor of Karl”. (ANI)
