Karl Lagerfeld × Tiffany Cooper
For KARL LAGERFELD, Tiffany has created a mini collection of playful ready-to-wear and accessories mixing her cheeky but sweet universe with the designer’s codes. The result depicts Karl and his inseparable sidekick Choupette as they depart on an unexpected summery road trip. On t-shirts and sweatshirts embroidered with patches, the designer dances in front of a puzzled Choupette. He dons a loincloth while Choupette has a ukulele on a Tahitian beach. The duo is also seen enjoying ice cream cones and super-sized milkshakes and roller-skating off to new adventures. Karl’s face is also displayed on a biker jacket and jeans. And his smile and famous ponytail can be seen on a leather bag while the whiskers and big eyes of Choupette are shown on a plexi clutch bag. Cotton beach bags, PVC totes, printed slip-ons, caps and jewelry complement this comic range.

EYTYS
Eytys’ expertise when it comes to sneakers is proven. Today the Swedish label embarks on a new challenge: VOID, a line of 3 beautiful, functional, and unisex bags, including a backpack, a tote and a briefcase manufactured in a completely innovative waterproof material that allows Max Schiller, founder of the brand, to keep his belongings dry during his boat journeys between his archipelago and his office in Stockholm …
A product that keeps your belongings safe while traveling by boat, but that is also perfectly suited for city life. The result is a collection of waterproof bags made in a factory that typically manufactures inflatable rafts, kayaks and tents. VOID, the material developed by Eytys is a polyester coated with polyurethane on both sides. A material that meets high performance standards while maintaining a minimal and sleek finish. Radiofrequency welding was used to put the bags together, creating strong, fully waterproof seams that are more resistant than the material itself.
