Best Answer

Lagerfeld attended secondary school Lycee Montaigne in Paris, majoring in history and drawing. He originally wanted to be an illustrator or cartoonist, but entered a contest in coat making sponsored by the International Wool Secretariat. He came in second place (to Yves Saint-Laurent) and as a result he gained an apprenticeship with Pierre Balmain.
