If you’re wondering who Karl Lagerfield is, here’s what you need to know. Karl is a German fashion designer who is currently based in Paris, France. He has worked with luxury fashion brands like H&M, Jean Patou, Macy‘s and others. He is also the head-designer for Chanel and creative director for Fendi. In addition, he owns his private clothing line and is known for experimenting with black and white.

There was an outrage caused by Lagerfeld’s utilisation of a verse from the Quran in his spring 1994 couture accumulation for Chanel, despite of apologetic statements from the planner and the design house. He apologised and clarified that he has taken the line from a book on Taj Mahal and thought it literates to some poem on love.

The shoe and lifestyle brand cleared its intentions of growing their range to significantly promote a worldwide takeover. This was to pay honor on their 50th anniversary on March 16. Vans has set up their permanent locations in Brooklyn and London already. Before #DamnDaniel became viral, Vans has been celebrating their success.

“I think like Vans, I try to have a style that could be seen as timeless. I never tried to make things just so it could withstand the test of time but some of what I’ve done has. In fact, I look at Vans that way as well. Any time you celebrate longevity it’s a beautiful thing. You are thanking your supporters and laughing at your doubters at the same time,” rapper Nas said at an event while praising the brand.

So, if you’re a Vans-fan and appreciate the black and white combination, this product range is a blessing for you. How do you like the story? Let us know in the comments down below.
