First, Karl Lagerfeld was a human man. Then he was a bag charm. After that, an iPhone case. Today, Karl Lagerfeld is a handbag. Karl Lagerfeld contains multitudes.
We’re talking, of course, about the enormously popular Fendi Karlito accessories. Lagerfeld’s furry Fendi Mini Me generated enormous wait lists after debuting on the finger of Cara Delevingne at the opening of a Fendi runway show, and when Megs wrote about the line’s phone case in May, speculation was already rampant that only 600 would be available and they would be quickly spoken for. The tote above, which is the third Karlito product we know about (well, fourth–there are technically two different bag charms), is the biggest Karlito to date, and also the most expensive.
Clearly, Fendi wasn’t looking to overcomplicate things with this bag: it’s a black textile tote with a giant Karlito mounted on the front, plus a pink fur mohawk down the back. That’s it! That’s the show, folks. Whether it’s worth $3,950 probably depends a lot on how you value both Karl Lagerfeld and four grand.
If you’re in love with Karl and don’t care who knows it, pre-order this tote at LUISAVIAROMA.
