Karl Lagerfeld brings his unique vision of Parisian chic to America through KARL LAGERFELD PARIS, with collections including ready-to-wear for women, accessories, shoes and bags.
The fashion brand announced the launch of its first “Social Collection” of eveningwear styles, debuting this month. Featuring 13 designer gowns, the collection incorporates an elegant colour palette with a Parisian chic aesthetic. The Social Collection is the latest extension of Karl Lagerfeld Paris’ growing brand portfolio, which offers women’s apparel, footwear and accessories designed specifically for the North American market.
“We are thrilled to bring this inspiring collection to market, fusing together our many years of design expertise in all things evening wear, with the new Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand heritage of classic style and elevated taste level which addresses all ages. We are confident that this collection will showcase a timeless yet innovative and modern perspective on the beloved Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand,” said Camille Passaro, President of Karl Lagerfeld Paris’ Dress Division.
The 13 styles range from off-the-shoulder gowns to long-sleeved cocktail dresses. The design features signature details including sequin, lace, pearl and floral appliqués, with three-dimensional fabric details and woven accents.
