This KARL LAGERFELD x Amber Valletta K/Kushion bag has a story
KARL LAGERFELD is teaming up with supermodel, actress and activist Amber Valletta to create a conscious accessories collection for this Spring 2021 season. The protagonist of this collection, the K/Kushion bag, promises sustainable materials that are sourced with minimal ecological impact.
In a way very unique and different, the K/Kushion bag carries the essence of the designer’s eponymous brand and remembers a little-known piece of him. It is inspired by a tailor-made cushion that Karl Lagerfeld brought around with him whenever he travelled.
Taking cue from the cushion’s worn, endured silhouette – a few close friends knew about this cushion that Karl Lagerfeld had kept since his childhood, the K/Kushion bag is as stylish as it is utilitarian in a voluminous, pillowy profile.
“To see it all coming to life is a great achievement and honor, I am convinced that Karl would have loved it,” shares Amber Valletta. ‘I love seeing able to continue his legacy – chic, bold and innovative! It was exciting to see how thoroughly the KARL LAGERFELD brand is researching sustainable practices and materials. They continue to impress me with their knowledge and commitment to design, and producing in a new and conscious way.”
The KARL LAGERFELD X Amber Valletta K/Kushion bag is made available in two eco-friendly material options, including the vegan cactus leather and the 90% recycled cotton, each offering different colourways.
The profits generated from the sale of KARL LAGERFELD X Amber Valletta K/Kushion bag will be contributed to The Ocean Cleanup non-profit organization.
