Karl Lagerfeld, creative director of French boutique Chanel (CHANEL), died of pancreatic cancer in Paris yesterday (19) at the age of 85. Lagerfeld is recognized as the most influential designer of this century. In the fashion industry, he "should be frozen" and gained fame and fortune. It is said that he left his legacy to his beloved Berman cat "Chupette", which sparked discussion.

Cubit.

Lagerfeen, formerly known as CHANE and FENDI designer and creative director, also created another brand of the same name, with a rough estimate of US$200 million (about NT$6.2 billion). Since he had no official date after his socialite boyfriend Jacques de Bascher passed away, it was reported that the inheritance will be left to his beloved cat, Cat Choobit and his 11-year-old godson Hudson Kroenig.

Lagerfeld treated Chubitt as his own.

In fact, Lagerfeld has raised Choubit for more than 7 years. He regards his cat's son as his own. In addition to opening an IG for it, two maids have taken care of themselves 24 hours a day, and even enjoys high-quality ingredients such as caviar and king crab for three meals. He lives a very comfortable life. In addition, Lagerfeld once asked Chubitt to take fashion photos as a model, and earned 3 million euros (about NT$160 million) for his father in just two days, but he banned Chubitt from endorsing cat canned food, "because it is too elegant!"
