Karl Lagerfeld has a new capsule collection to flaunt for his own line, for which he, and sometimes his cat Choupette, serve as the sole muses. Dubbed ‘Karl the Photographer’, the capsule includes Ready-To-Wear pieces along with accessories that feature Lagerfeld and Choupette in selfies, photo booth pics, polaroids and abstract pixelated images.
The collection draws inspiration from Lagerfeld’s career as an accomplished photographer and is described as an artful expression of Karl’s love for photography.
Lagerfeld is known to shoot all the campaigns for his own collection and has also shot campaigns for Chanel, Fendi, and Dior Homme among others, along with editorial shoots, and a slew of artistic projects for exhibitions and books.
“Photography is part of my life,” Lagerfeld said in a statement.
