Lafaucheuse 4,043 Posted August 3, 2018 here is my personal bets for this year or next year in fashion industry : Iris Apfel : turns 97 in 20 days, really famous in the fashion industry Karl Lagerfeld : the Kaser had some issues that worried a lot of people in France this past year and recently talked about his death and his health in the following interview John Galliano : a drug addict who definitely is a strong competitor Ralph Lauren : 78, been really quiet recently Giorgio Armani : 84 yo now Carmen dell'orefice : one of the world oldest supermodel who turns 88 next year, still looks marvelous with the death of Givenchy, Kate Spade, Sonia Rikyel, Oscar deal Renta or other big names in the last 5 years, fashion industry is definitely one of the industry to keep an eye on in 2019 edit : i forfot Daphne Selfe, the real oldest supermodel who is 90 this year 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
