Kaia Gerber And Karl Lagerfeld To Co-Design A Collection
The it-girl rite of passage.
Kaia Gerber is the latest Chanel muse to rise to it-girl status, cementing her position with the announcement of a forthcoming collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld. Still fresh on the scene, 16-year-old Gerber only made her runway debut last season but has already walked in two Chanel shows, the first of which she opened.
"When Karl first told us his idea to collaborate with Kaia, we were all excited by the incredible potential and power of bringing their two worlds together,” Pier Paolo Righi, chief executive officer of Karl Lagerfeld, said in a statement.
“We have been working intensely over the last months with Kaia in LA and at our studio in Paris. It was exciting to see her clear vision, passion and engagement, and the collection will definitely inspire many young women.”
The collection will pull together Lagerfeld's Parisian chic with Gerber's West Coast style, featuring apparel, jewelry, shoes and sunglasses.
Judging by the unstoppable success of Gigi Hadid's collaboration with Tommy Hilfiger – now in its third season – this looks like it's gonna be big.
