Karl Lagerfeld: September 10, 1933-February 19, 2019 (GIF via Vogue)

His death was confirmed by Chanel, for which he has been creative director since 1983. He was also creative director of Fendi since 1965, and the man behind his own iconic line.

“Sweatpants are a sign of defeat.” — Karl Lagerfeld

Among Lagerfeld's other achievements: He was a photographer, a book publisher (Edition 7L) and the author of the 2002 diet book The Karl Lagerfeld Diet, which chronicled how he dropped nearly 100 lbs.
