"Well the one thing I knew for certain is that we could not do a traditional retrospective," Bolton told Vogue. "For one thing, I think Karl would have hated that. Even though one of his facets was that he was a historicist, and he would revisit themes in his work, he was always looking to the future in his own work-he hated looking back at the past. It was something he had a very conflicted relationship with."
Usher
While some male stars like Taika Waititi and Brian Tyree Henry went with wildly intricate looks that would have made Lagerfeld proud, many wore similar black tuxedoes. Here's a look at some who got reamed by fashion fans. Others also celebrated any time a male star didn't wear a boring tux.
Designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez
Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez are the co-founders of the fashion house Proenza Schouler. They didn't seem interested in wearing flashy designs themselves.
Daniel Ricciardo
Italian-Australian racecar driver Daniel Ricciardo wore a black tux to the event, but many of his fans were completely fine with the simple look.
Fendi CEO Serge Brunschwig
Fendi CEO Serge Brunschwig attended alongside South Korean actress Song Hye-Kyo. Fans were not happy to see another boring black tux when he walked by the cameras.
James McAvoy
James McAvoy's fans know he could do better than a boring tux. He carried a black hand fan though, so that may have been his big creative move.
Rami Malek... Worse than a black tux?
Rami Male went a very simple route that had some scratching their heads. A few even suggested that his white-vest-over-white-shirt look was even worse than a black tux.
