Yes legendary designer Karl Lagerfield has hinted that Mr Ackermann may be the next head designer at Chanel, telling Numero magazine:
"I have a contract for life so it all depends on who I would like to hand it to. At the moment I'd say Haider Ackermann."
Mr Ackermann, who was hinted to be Martin Margiela's successor at Maison, was invited to Chanel's latest show in Paris, by none other than Lagerfield himself.
He was thrilled at the news, telling WWD:
"What can one possibly say to such a phrase?! Such a compliment! Honoured I feel, how can one not be?! In all honesty tremendously, immensely touched especially coming from Monsieur Lagerfeld."
