I cannot stop thinking about Karl and how supportive and generous he always was towards me. I will always cherish these gifts and the words that came with them because Karl gave them to me. They are objects of course, gestures and promises in material form sent to me by him- just because. The most meaningful and extraordinary of the mementos I have from him came to me before I had actually met Karl. It is a telegram from him congratulating me on being appointed the designer and creative director at Perry Ellis some 31 years ago. In the telegram he told me how much respect he had for Perry and how he knew him and thought him to be such a nice and gentle man. Later on, during my Vuitton days, I would receive from Karl his praise, compliments and support in the form of books, prints of photographs he had taken, hand written notes, flowers and best of all- some wickedly naughty and wonderful sketches he did for me (and my eyes only). The time that he put into each gesture, each thing, their meaning, his generosity and his thoughts behind them were so truly authentic and genuine. Not only have we all lost a creative genius, I have lost someone I truly looked up to in awe, and with complete respect and undying admiration. He was one of only a very few who showed me his support as an unknown kid all the way thru to the person I’ve become today. It is with great sadness that I’m writing this and also gratitude and great happiness that I am fortunate enough to have had these moments and experiences with him. I will forever cherish my memories of Karl?
