Kaiser Karl, a series about fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, has been commissioned as a Star original for Disney Plus. A number of documentaries including 2007’s Lager Confidentiel have looked at Lagerfeld’s life and career, however, the forthcoming Star series will be the first dramatic show to focus on the German designer.
The six-part series – produced by the same company behind Netflix’s hit series Lupin – will be shot in France. It will chronicle Lagerfeld’s rise in the fashion industry, beginning in the Seventies as Lagerfeld was breaking into the French fashion scene.
Kaiser Karl will also portray the rivalry between Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent’s partner Pierre Berge and explore his love story with Jacques de Bascher.
