KARL LAGERFELD

Innovation at KARL LAGERFELD begins with collaboration. Voices of #TEAMKARL introduces the people shaping the Maison’s next chapter, each with their own vision, creativity, and drive. Meet Diogo Amorim Vieira, Senior Strategic Wholesale and Franchise at KARL LAGERFELD. Originally from Portugal, Diogo’s multifaceted career path has been guided by Karl Lagerfeld’s own words: “What I love best in life is new starts.” He joined the company in 2023 as an international visual merchandiser, and after two years, embraced a new challenge in the sales team. “It’s given me the opportunity to redirect my career path, challenge myself, and gain a much deeper understanding of the business beyond just one perspective,” he says. In his current role, Diogo drives franchise and wholesale performance — from sell-in to sell-out — by leveraging data, customer insights and market intelligence. He helps optimize product rotation and store layouts to maximize sales, ensure efficient stock and enhance the in-store customer experience. As a key link between internal teams and external partners, he especially values the opportunity to work with people of diverse backgrounds, cultures and nationalities — he’s visited over 50 countries as part of his job! What’s next on his journey, and where will it take him? The possibilities are endless. #KARLLAGERFELD

The Real Karl, Through Sebastien’s Eyes “I came from a place that was totally different to his. Our connection grew through discipline, trust and a shared drive for excellence. Paris became the backdrop to a daily rhythm shaped by creativity: from lunches in the city to late nights at the office, to the studio on rue de Lille.” A relationship that shaped more than moments, it shaped a legacy. Defined by generosity and vision. Connected by tenacity, determination and pride. All images courtesy of the Sébastien Jondeau archive. Follow the story here: https://lnkd.in/enJ6qyVA #KARLLAGERFELD

Inspiring the next generation of fashion leaders. KARL LAGERFELD’s Amsterdam headquarters recently welcomed 35 business students from the University of Missouri Trulaske College of Business for an immersive look inside the fashion industry. Designed to give students a deeper understanding of the commercial foundations of the business, the program featured workshops on licensing strategies, global partnerships, digital innovation and sustainability. Alongside a showroom tour, students explored the creative journey from concept to collection and discovered how design, marketing and merchandising teams collaborate. “Sharing knowledge, experience and exchanging ideas with students who will shape the industry is truly inspiring,” said Nico Scarsini, Senior Licensing Manager, who led the day’s program.

The Karl spirit comes through not only in the architecture and interiors, but in the way the concierge greets you, the calm of the spa, and the thoughtful touches that shape everyday life. This is where our design philosophy meets a city defined by light and creativity, and something genuinely special takes form. We’re proud to unveil the first KARL LAGERFELD branded residence in Lisbon, honoring Karl’s innovative and pioneering vision.” The presentation was hosted by Pier Paolo Righi, Maison Ambassador Sebastien Jondeau, SVP of Image Caroline Lebar, and OVERSEAS CEO Pedro Vicente, with Portuguese and French press in attendance.
