The Chanel Spring 2019 Couture show, held in January, 2019, was the last collection under the direction of Karl Lagerfeld who designed the brand since 1983. He passed away on Feb, 19th, 2019.
The Cruise 2020 show, shown in May, was created under the direction of his long time associate, Virginie Viard.
