Later in his life, Karl Lagerfeld memorably subsisted on ten cans of Diet Coke each day, but it’s safe to say that even he would have been tempted to indulge at The Park’s recent dinner for Karl, a documentary directed by Nick Hooker about the fashion designer’s remarkable life and times. Graydon Carter, its executive producer, and Daphne Guinness, a close friend of Lagerfeld’s, welcomed a lively group of artists, writers, and bon vivants to The Park following a screening at Electric Cinema, in Notting Hill.
