Many celebrities and influential people shared their grief on social media platforms like Instagram. Louis Vuitton CEO Michael Burke shared: “Karl adopted me when I was in need of a friend in Rome! We became partners in crime, and wrote history on the Great Wall of China. Aim high, shoot for the stars. You will always be our guiding light.” Among others were model sisters, Gigi and Bella Hadid who shared their remorse.


The designer was absent last month in Paris Fashion Week which was attributed to fatigue. When the time came for his final bow, he was notably missing and had asked Virginie Viard to step in for him.
