Tale of a Fairy by Karl Lagerfeld

Written by Guest Blogger Seema Sharma

Karl Lagerfeld made a 30-minute short film called: The Tale of a Fairy. It’s basically a video showcase of Chanel’s latest collection Cruise. Karl described it as “a movie about an ill-advised use of money which begins with violence and ends with feeling”. The actress Anna Mouglalis and the models Kristen McMenamy, Baptiste Giabiconi and Freja Beha Erichson are the main actors.


McMenamy plays an aggressive woman with money troubles, Giabiconi plays her perverted godson and Erichson plays a topless fairy. In other words, it has all the ingredients to make a remarkable film. According to Lagerfeld this movie shows the kind of world that the collection is made for.
