Who says only kids can play with teddy bears? I am sure many adults would like to have this limited-edition Karl Lagerfeld teddy bear by famous toy maker Steiff (button in ear). And for $1,500 each, I don’t think many kids can afford it anyway.

The couture teddy bear is dressed as the larger than life fashion designer in iconic black glasses and black suit. It even has a belt with the KL initials logo. It’s a pity that the famous hand fan Karl Lagerfeld usually holds is missing…

The special Lagerfeld Steiff teddy bear has a limited edition of 2,500 pieces. The $1,500 adult teddy is set to launch at Neiman Marcus stores this September.

When the famous toy brand, Margarete Steiff, allows itself to produce the first ever "couture" teddy bear, it 's with the master of today's luxury Karl Lagerfeld. A unique and unusual collaboration that shows us, one more time, how Lagerfeld is always on the avant garde. Steiff keeps on the innovation and brings you the first teddy bear made for older kids.

I think it should have Karl's favourite fingerless gloves too. Do you think he designed it himself? Looks like he signed the sketch. I guess that wouldn't be too far fetched...Elsa can you say Chanel! Duh.

Yup Elsa, he collaborated with Steiff on the design. Hence the $1,500 price tag!

This has to be one of my favourite trends ever. As a kid I used to always go look at Steiff animals in the store and dream about which ones I wanted. This sure beats them all if I had to choose one now :)

Elsa, it's kinda hard to have fingerless gloves when the teddy bear toy doesn't have any fingers, lol.
