Even if you may not be a Karl Lagerfeld fan (I mean, he does continue to make enemies the world over), I’m sure there are still a few fashionistas out there that would take this Karl Lagerfeld Art Toy and create a shrine around it -- an egocentric toy created by the mastermind himself.

In collaboration with KL the Karl Lagerfeld Art Toy was designed by the famous Japanese brand Tokidoki, which means ‘sometimes’ in Japanese. A limited edition collector’s item, only 1000 have been produced and these will be available in stores in time for the holidays.
