Fashion Is Fun

“You Want the Unpublished Manuscript?”

karl lagerfeld wine goblet holder.jpgIt’s no secret that working for high level people can include some pretty embarrassing tasks.


The Independent had a cute story this weekend
about some of the strangest jobs in fashion, which centered mostly around (who else?) Karl.

They covered that he employs a music nanny - like a librarian for his collection of 100+ iPods - and that he requires a certain type of pencil for signatures. But they missed one other fun job he considers worth paying someone for - goblet holder.

At left, you can see the unnamed man who kept Karl’s drink at the ready during his Fendi ad shoot with Raquel and Brad in Madison Square Park last month.

Glad we finally worked that picture in somehow. And now, back to reality.

Actually, all three of those men are employed as part of the goblet-holder squad. The two sweatshirt-wearing men have been hired to stand near the goblet-carrying man to create a contrast so that goblet-carrying man looks even more dressed up and pompous.
