I was so excited to wake up to a tweet this morning from Vogue announcing Karl Lagerfeld opening his first flagship UK store during March, in London's very own, fashion loving, Regent Street!
I have always loved Karl's work, not only his designing, but also his photography that I have previously studied. He is such a HUGE inspiration to me by the way his work represents repeated reinvention and through his creative direction success with Chanel, and also for his own label and Fendi! Despite his current success, I believe that opening a UK store will make his label even more established for the public.
The London boutique will be his largest in Europe, stocking both his mens and womanswear collections, within 2,700 sq ft. The interior is expected to be as remarkable as his garments, and his love of technology will be reflected throughout the store. From Karl inspired filtered photo booths in the changing rooms for shoppers use, to a digital guestbook for customers to leave messages for Karl himself.
So... Let the countdown till March begin!
