Couture for the Masses
The model shown here with Lagerfeld is wearing clothes from "Karl Lagerfeld for H&M," a 30-item collection that he designed last year for Swedish-based retail chain H&M. The collection sold out within days after hitting stores last November, and sparked near-riots in some locations as fashionistas elbowed their way to the racks. H&M says its same-store sales jumped 12% in November.
