About the book :
Lagerfeld showcases in an oversize 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 on par with the clothes they present. This has been most evident in Paris at the now legendary runways of Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel. To capture the energy of the events, Procter visually re-creates the epic sets--from a luscious 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 worldwide and published in this book for the first time alongside never-before-seen candid images of Lagerfeld and the models preparing backstage.
Lagerfeld offers the reader an unparalleled look into the wide-ranging creativity of one of history's most respected and iconic designers, making this an invaluable resource for all lovers of fashion and especially admirers of Chanel and Lagerfeld's incomparable legacy.

SIMON PROCTER
Simon Procter was born in 1968 in Lancashire, Northern England. He studied fine art for many years, originally focusing on both painting and sculpture, and holds a B.A. Honors degree in Fine Art from Trent University, United Kingdom. Procter moved to Paris in the late ‘90s and, while doing a variety of odd jobs in the city, met one of the associates at Visionaire. Thereafter, Procter took up photography and used his unique fine art aesthetic to develop a photographic technique that captures and documents the grand scale of fashion shows and the architectural spaces in which they take place. This synthesis of fashion photography and classical painting distinguishes Procter’s work. His first fashion photography endeavor was shooting a Dior show from 100 feet above the runway. The resulting images were published in two major stories in “V Magazine” and exhibited at Colette, with a sponsorship by both Armani and Prada. He has since produced works for Adidas Y-3, L’Oréal Paris, Christian Dior, Armani, Chanel, and Stella McCartney among others. His photography has been featured in numerous publications including “Vogue Nippon,” “Harper’s Bazaar” and “The New York Times” and has been exhibited in Paris’ Grand Palais, the Moscow Museum of Art and The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. It was also the subject of a coffee-table book, “Lagerfeld: The Chanel Shows,” published by Rizzoli in 2019.
