Fashion News: Vans x Karl Lagerfeld
When you think of Vans your mind probably doesn’t go to high end fashion, thanks to their latest collaboration that is all about to change.
Karl Lagerfeld keeps his days packed with holding the position of creative director for luxury brands Fendi and Chanel, but every now and then takes time to do an unexpected collab. This time Mr Lagerfeld has teamed up with the ever so popular American manufacturer, Vans. Best known for their relaxed skateboarder style offering sneakers, comfy tops and practical bags. Karl is adding his ultra chic touch to the new collection as only he can. The standard Vans trademark is still very present. Their classic checkerboard print is used throughout the collection, but there is also many splashes of Karl’s identifiable style. Chanel’s classic tweed bouclé, Karl’s iconic profile print, and his love of classic black & white are what are all staples. The line launched earlier this week with prices ranging from $40-$300. Several items are already sold-out so if there’s something you have your eye on you might want to add to cart ASAP.
