Commissioned by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel specifically for this haute couture season. A rare opportunity to get hold of this special set.. Largerfeld had been influenced since his early days as a freelance designer in the 1970s by Strauss' opera.. Having befriended Marlene Dietrich, her stage dress made of a net called "soufflé," the 18th-century Princess Palatine, in Strauss’s opera. (He once confided “I am the Marschallin.”). So all in all quite a personal portfolio to the man and his inspiration. ..excerpt from a 2014 interview with Hanz Ulrich Obrist; HUO: "What kind of music do you listen to? Dan Graham said once that one could actually understand an artist only when one knows what kind of music he listens to." KL: "I am very much interested in what is new right now. I mean, listen to the music at our défilés. I choose it with Michel Gaubert. I am interested in what is happening today, but I also have a great knowledge of classical music from all periods. I am fanatic of Strauss. I knew the text of Der Rosenkavalier by heart when I was a child, as I love Hofmannsthal. Lagerfeld, fashion's Andy Warhol that eclipsed Warhol's time in the limelight is already very collectable and sadly with his recent passing, is becoming more so. Rare chance to get hold of this complete set as often parted out. Complete sets when occasionally come to market command prices in excess of £3,000.  **IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING** For shipping to UK/International, have quoted as free, however ask that you arrange shipping your side..
