Karl Lagerfeld has revealed the first images of his new jewellery collection with Swarovski. The collection is divided into three groups: Ikonic, with a rock-chic aesthetic; Klassic Karl, inspired by Lagerfeld's famous cat Choupette; and Essentials, made up of classic key pieces.  

Pier Paolo Righi, CEO of Karl Lagerfeld calls the collaboration a “next natural step for us to expand our product range with a fashion jewellery collection”. Markus Langes-Swarovski, a member of Swarovski’s executive board said that the crystal manufacturer is looking forward to maximising the partnership with Karl Lagerfeld.

Items include personalised charms, ear jackets, pearls, chains and studs encrusted with Swarovski crystals, finished with gold plating, rose gold plating and rhodium plating. The collection will be launched in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the US this fall.
