The late Karl Lagerfeld was remembered over the weekend on what would\u2019ve been his 87th birthday. On September 10, friends, family and celebrities took to social media to post tributes for the German creative director, photographer and fashion designer who passed away in 2019 from pancreatic cancer.<\/p>\n

Among those remembering him were Vogue Editor-In-Chief Anna Wintour who posted a photo with the Creative Director of Fendi and Chanel, accompanied with a simple caption reading Happy Birthday Karl. Cara Delevingne and Bella Hadid also posted tributes to the fashion designer on their Instagram accounts. Lagerfeld\u2019s beloved cat, Choupette also dedicated a square to her late owner, posting a collage of the two of them with a heartfelt message to her daddy.<\/p>\n

The birthday tributes come a day after Fendi announced Lagerfeld\u2019s successor<\/a>, Dior menswear Artistic Director, Kim Jones. The position will see Jones designing for two LVMH houses, making him the first designer to work across both brands under the luxury parent company.<\/p>\n

\u2728Happy Birthday Karl!!! \u25ab\ufe0f\u201cKarl and I kept a standing dinner date in Paris on the first Sunday of every Fashion Week, often joined by our great friend Amanda Harlech, but we never spoke of our work during those evenings. He was witty and winsome, and seemed to have an endless supply of risque\u0301 jokes\u2014in other words, the world\u2019s best dinner companion. The hours I spent with him at the table make me feel luckier than any stroke of fortune I\u2019ve had at my editing desk.\u201d-Anna Wintour . . #annawintour<\/a><\/p>\n
