Information about the artwork: Lagerfeld presents in an oversized format ten years of Chanel's most influential fashion shows, shot by English photographer Simon Procter. Over the past decade, fashion shows have evolved into monumental productions, requiring a level of sophistication and creativity to match the garments they showcase. This has been most often in Paris on Karl Lagerfeld's now legendary catwalks for Chanel. To capture the energy of the events, Procter visually recreates the epic settings – from a lush forest scene to a rocket launch – combining multiple photographs to illustrate in a single image the many perspectives of the intense but fleeting spectacle. The resulting artworks are held in collections around the world and published in this book for the first time alongside never-before-seen candid images of Lagerfeld and the models getting ready backstage.

This book offers the reader an unparalleled look into the vast creativity of one of history's most respected and iconic designers, making it an invaluable resource for all fashion lovers and especially admirers of the incomparable legacy of Chanel and Lagerfeld.
