The widely anticipated Karl Lagerfeld collection for Macy’s has hit stores, much to the delight of many a budget fashionista. It is the third in a series of designer collaborations for the store. This line – Karl Lagerfeld for Impulse – is a limited-edition run, with price points ranging from $50-$170 and is available online and in 235 Macy’s stores nationwide.
The capsule collection features 45 unique pieces ranging from casual t-shirts to glam dresses, professional wear, and more. All have an edgy-meets-classic appeal and — to my pleasure — a predominately black, white, and grey color palette.
It includes garments for any taste, from his trademark stiff white collar, some tweeds and some pleather, to metallics, pretty sheer blouses, and the subtlest details that make it exquisite such as sparkling buttons and one dress with a detachable collar.
As with any collection, there were highs and lows. However, all in all, this is one that will please your eye and your wallet.
I was lucky enough to attend the VIP Sneak Preview viewing of the collection and would like to thank Macy’s, South Hills Village for their hospitality and what was a lovely event. Take a peek at some of my favorite pieces, below, as well as photos from the event.
