Karl Lagerfeld & Tiffany Cooper

cat-lagerfeldThis week, the online fashion community was buzzing about the upcoming collaboration between cartoonist Tiffany Cooper and iconic fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. The artist made an announcement on Instagram sharing a photo of herself with her doodles of Mr Lagerfeld and his kitty Choupette, who will be featured in the capsule collection to premiere April 1 at Colette stores in Paris, and then at his namesake boutiques a few days later.

I wanted to see more of these drawings, so I continued researching this story, and discovered that Ms Cooper had previously created drawings for the designer last year. These items also debuted at Colette stores. Take a look at these photos from Ms Cooper’s website:

I also learned that the fashionable feline has been the designer’s muse for a previous collection, “Monster Choupette,” as promoted by this animated video. And of course, the pampered pet can be followed on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Or you can check out her High-Flying book.

The fashion icon has also been caricaturized in a daily comic competition called “Kartoon.”
We’ll have to follow up this story in a couple of months when the collection debuts!
