Karl Lagerfeld is still denying that he’s retiring in 2012, and that Alber Elbaz is going to replace him. In fact, he says if he gets to choose who steps in, he’d like it to be Antwerp star Haider Ackermann. “I have a contract for life so it all depends on who I would like to hand it to. At the moment I’d say Haider Ackermann,” the Kaiser told Numero.
Clearly, Ackermann is flattered. But we have a feeling Lagerfeld won’t have as much to do with the decision as he believes. Unless that’s in his contract, too. (Remember what happened at Valentino?)

Is Mr. Lagerfeld DIEING! He said time-and time again during interviews that he will be working for the house of Chanel for life. As long as he can hold a pencil in his hand…..he will be designing till the day he dies.
Not to be morbid, because I hope he is able to work as long as he pleases, but I’m sure there is a clause or specification in his contract that he will only be working as long as he is of sound mind. Nobody I know has died of old age in any condition to be working, even though Karl seems to be at his healthiest now.
