As we all know, Tokidoki has become a leading producer of Japanese inspired consumer goods around the globe. This year, the company decided to take a more fashionable approach to the art with the launch of a Karl Lagerfeld Tokidoki. In the creation, world-renowned fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld is immortalized into a 10” vinyl figurine.
The reproduction features Karl decked out in his signature K by Karl Lagerfeld fitted suit, extended white collar, and rhinestone studded belt, tie, and cuffs. The oversized badass shades couldn’t be left out of course.
Paying homage to the designer’s trademark color preference, the Tokidoki is exclusively designed in black and white with a touch of gray and silver.
Despite his prodigious fame and unparalleled success, designer Karl Lagerfeld humbly esteems Simone Legno’s Karl Lagerfeld figurine creation and states that he is flattered to be a Tokidoki.
The piece carries a price of €129 Euros (about $193) and will be distributed at all Karl Lagerfeld flagship stores throughout the US and Europe beginning October 2009. The Tokidoki will also be seen on T-shirts in the K by Karl Lagerfeld Spring 2010 Collection.
