 Karl Lagerfeld has upped his grovelling privately to Adele, whom he famously called 'a little too fat'.
The Chanel Creative director has appealed to the Grammy-winner's love of fashion and sent her a range of the label's coveted handbags.

According to The Sun, 'He told his team to send Adele the best the fashion house have to offer after hearing she collected bags.
'He's annoyed with himself because he ended up insulting her when he meant to compliment her. He thinks she's beautiful and calls her divine.'
 
    Lagerfeld, 78, backtracked on the comments made to a French magazine earlier this year.
    The jibes caused an uproar from fans, with even Madonna wading into the scandal, calling Lagerfeld's words 'horrible.'
    Adele chose not to comment directly, but told People magazine in a well-timed interview, 'I represent the majority of women and I'm very proud of that.'

    Within days, the German designer had issued a grovelling statement to the Someone Like You star. 'I’d like to say to Adele that I am your biggest admirer,' he said at the time.
    'Sometimes when you take a sentence out of the article it changes the meaning of the thought. Adele is my favorite singer and I am a great admirer of her.'
    Lagerfeld added that he admired Adele for being so strong in the face of comments regarding her weight.

    He said: 'I lost over 30 kilos over 10 years ago and have kept it off. I know how it feels when the press is mean to you in regards to your appearance. 
    'Adele is a beautiful girl. She is the best. And I can’t wait for her next CD.'
    Clearly feeling that he has not done enough to get back in her good graces, Karl is now showering Adele with gifts, including the iconic quilted handbags and totes.
    'He said he really wanted to make it up to her so they could maybe work together in the future.'

    Blake Lively is the current face of Chanel's Mademoiselle handbags, but the Sun claims that Lagerfeld is now considering Adele to take over once the Gossip Girl star's contract is up. 
    In his offending interview, Lagerfeld was quoted as saying that Adele was 'a little too fat, but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice.'
    Meanwhile Adele has backtracked on her promise to not record new material for five years while she focuses on her private life.
    In an interview with radio station NFJ she said: 'There will be a new song, probably coming out at the end of the year. But then it depends how quickly I write some other new songs.'
    Adele said another album is two years away.
