We are thrilled, to say the least, that Karl Lagerfeld has unveiled his plans for an Olympic pop-up shop in Selfridges. The collection, appropriately named Team Karl, will feature Olympic Sports related clothing and accessories, “capturing the energy and celebrations around the Olympic games in the host city of London.” It will also house limited edition T-shirts from the Karl Lagerfeld X I love Dust collaboration. We will definitely be picking up one of those!
We are excited to see Karl’s interpretation of sportswear. Perhaps we will see nylon versions of Lagerfeld’s signature fingerless gloves worn by cyclists for the games. We could only dream of what he will come up with!
The pop-up shop will be situated in the Karl Lagerfeld’s signature space on the 3rd floor of Selfridges and will also feature is own window displays. The greatest news, however, is that Lagerfeld himself will be in London for the launch of this exciting shop, and of course hosting a private cocktail party in the store on July 24th. All that’s left to do is cross your fingers and hope for an invite!
What do you envision Karl Lagerfeld will design for the Olympic games? We’d love to hear your thoughts! Tweet us at Batd_com.
