Though some of the hats in this collection may look similar, each accessory is inspired by one of Lagerfeld's five model muses. It has become quite clear that models Kendall Jenner, Cara Delevingne, Karlie Kloss, Anja Rubik and Poppy Delevingne have captured Karl Lagerfeld's heart and stylish eye. Celebrating the breathtaking beauty of each model, Lagerfeld has designed five hats for the newest Maison Michel Collection, inspired by each stunning runway star. The hats are made from natural straw and are accented with a black or nude grosgrain band. Lagerfeld also captures the utter femininity of each model by adding a silk lace or net veil to each accessory.
