As you will remember, the last months of 2017 as well as the first months of 2018 were plagued by impressive confessions of sexual harassment whose victims include some of the most popular actresses in Hollywood. Because of that, the Time's Up movement emerged, created by actresses such as Reese Witherspoon and Eva Longoria, who seek to raise funds for victims of abuse and with which they hope to raise awareness about this problem that affects so many women both in the film industry and in other areas. There were even many who joined this initiative that has managed to give a voice to those who do not have it and has opened the door for women to speak and demand their rights. So when someone in the industry decides to taunt or speak out against those who bravely pointed out their stalker, it is very strong.

It turns out that the legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld, in charge of creating the designs for important fashion houses such as Chanel and Fendi, stated that Fue is tired of both models and actresses denouncing the harassment they suffered.

"What surprises me is that all these stars have taken 20 years to remember what happened, not to mention the fact that they have no witnesses," Lagerfeld told Numéro magazine. "All of those harassment allegations have become toxic."

Even the designer did not stop his statements there. Lagerfeld also took the opportunity to defend his friend Interview magazine creative director Karl Templar, who recently faced allegations of harassment.

"I don't believe anything about the accusations against Karl Templar. A girl complained that he tried to pull his pants down and was suddenly banned from a profession that until then had revered him. It is incredible”, he confessed. “If you don't want your pants to come down, don't be a model, become a nun. There will always be a place for you in a convent. In fact they are recruiting."
