Aloysius in Fingerless Leather Gloves
Lagerfeld Confidential (2007)
directed by Rodolphe Marconi
rating: 2 out of 5 cravats
on DVD from Netflix
Karl Lagerfeld, by his own volition, is the man you see in Vogue in a snapshot from his Chanel runway show; unless in some private moments that The Beautiful Fall only alludes to and certainly Lagerfeld himself never talks about, the designer is as real as the stuffed teddy bear made in his image for charity. Lagerfeld is photographed with Mary-Kate Olsen, who adores him, or with people I do not recognize who have names for themselves in fashion. He wears high, disposable paper collars and fistfuls of pewter-colored rings. When he is asked for a quote, he does his best to entertain. Lagerfeld Confidential is the underwhelming big autumn issue of Lagerfeld vignettes, anecdotes, and poses, with private jets and private suites and nothing a fan (I am a fan) can't skim. The snapshot is all you really need, and all he really wants you to know.
