HOGAN By Karl Lagerfeld

AUTUMN – WINTER 2012/13 “ INTERAKTIVE ”

Paris - Wednesday, March 7th 2012 [ME NewsWire]


From the collaboration between Karl Lagerfeld and Hogan, a new jointly signed collection, the fourth , is presented for the autumn-winter 2012/13. Bringing together accessories and ready-to -wear, the collection borrows from the DNA of both the French and the Italian brands: the “haute couture” working sketches and balanced proportion s of Karl Lagerfeld, with the urban-chic lifestyle and the contemporary luxury of Hogan.

Concentrating on the essentials of a winter season, this new collection centres on the Interactive, Hogan’s iconic style. Karl Lagerfeld reinterprets it in multiple versions forday-time and night-time. Black or white patent leather with pyramid-shaped studs, nubuck covered with a metallic cascade of distressed gold or mercury, grey leather embroidered with cashmere pattern s in the style of a tapestry, for the day-time. Plain denim with silver leather braiding, grey leather latticework, and leather or pewter embroidered with twotone mini-pearls and with floral pattern s on the uppers, for the night-time.

For each of these models, a matching bag has been created: a straight-sided tote bag in black leather topstitched with a large nail-embossed H, interwoven with silver cashmere motifs, topped with a sheet of crinkled silver, together with a clutch bag in nubuck speckled with distressed gold metal droplets, nail-heads and zipped pocket. Also included is a shopping bag in fluted washed lambskin in snow-white, black or pewter, braided with matt or patent leather.

The ready-to -wear focuses are on two major items: the jacket and the down jacket. The first is a chameleon-style black or white garment, constructed as a two-in-one, woollen jacket with intersecting rounded panels lined with a padded sleeveless high-collared waistcoat in satin -textured nylon, detachable. Karl Lagerfeld’s colour codes also apply to the short down jackets, ¾-length or coat -length. Intersecting, buttoned and in satin -textured nylon, on the cuffs and on the sleeves, they have been decorated with a honeycomb of mother-of pearl or metallic finished wool and thread. Using the same principle, a lacework of bouclé fabric in blue with wa x finish has been applied to a down jacket in black technical fabric looks like vinyl. A pearl grey woolen jacket, zipped from one side to the other and adorned with double sport y pockets, complete this ensemble.

This is a specific collection that evokes a unique lifestyle: urban-chic, contemporary and everyday.
