Karl Lagerfeld
In celebration of Vuitton’s iconic monogram canvas, Karl Lagerfeld has imagined an extravagant set of luggage and accessories, fitted with a signature punching bag and stand, while a separate suitcase, also in monogram, holds boxing gloves and a mat. With its capacious interior and removable shelving, the trunk can also serve as a travel closet.
‘I know more and more women and men too who have started to box. I thought it was something that one should do, if possible, in a very expensive way. So I designed the huge piece of luggage with the punching-ball in it. I also wanted to make a bag that was inspired by that idea; it comes in different sizes. We made a special carpet with an application for beginners: where and how to put your feet and how to move. There is also a little bag with boxing gloves, it can be taken to the boxing appointment — I wanted to have a special monogram for that too. It was really very childish, simple thinking! ´ Karl quoted in his usual sober manner.
