A Three-Part 1987 Karl Lagerfeld TV Special Is Coming Out on DVD

In 1987 A&E aired a three-part series called The Story of Fashion, narrated by Karl Lagerfeld. The network has re-released them as a $49.99 DVD box set. Cathy Horyn writes, “Of course, the designers look astonishingly young. Mr. Lagerfeld, without his many rings, discusses everything from French court clothes to Mary Quant.” Now you know: Young Karl was a ringless Karl. [On the Runway/NYT]
