Fab four

The Karl Lagerfeld collection from Macy's has finally been launched, and I'm wondering whether it's getting the same kind of attention as Lanvin x H&M last year. Better yet, is it getting the same kind of attention as Karl Lagerfeld x H&M a few years back.

Admittedly, the selection isn't as awesome as that of Lanvin's. But that said, there were a four pieces that were really eye-catching. Aside from the nice design, what makes them different is that it really has Karl's fabulous signature.

The first one is this ponte shift dress which is retro and futuristic at the same time.


This dress has a faux croc vest over a black ponte shift dress. Croc skin is so in, especially now that we caught a ginormous crocodile on our shores.


Karl Lagerfeld and Chanel is all about tweed. So it's nice to see a modern, tweed dress in his collection. The cut is very unique, especially around the neck area. And the black rhinestone bands help it transition from day to night.


And the most fab among the four, this simple LBD with Karl Lagerfeld's signature high collar. I've read that you can remove the collar, too, so it becomes a basic black dress if need be.


Days like these, I wish we had Macy's in Manila.
