Simone Legno of tokidoki has created Mini Karl, a 10” vinyl edition of legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld (Chanel, Fendi) in his signature black outfit featuring items from his K Karl Lagerfeld Collection. This high-profile toys meets fashion crossover is limited to 1000 pieces and will be available for 129 euros ($190) @ tokidoki stores (Milan, New York, LA) and select retailers for the holiday season. It will debut at trendy spot Colette in October.
In a sense Karl Lagerfeld is now a tokidoki character in the guise of Mini Karl. As he says, “I am very flattered that I became a tokidoki, I always loved them and I am happy to be one of them”. Mini Karl will be featured on a line of t-shirts in Spring ‘10 [seen at WWDFashion].
