TBFers, have we got news for you. One of the biggest names in fashion is teaming up with one of the biggest names in shopping to bring all of us a little taste of the high-fashion life at a real-person price.
Karl Lagerfeld and Macy’s just announced that they’ve teamed up on a new line called “Karl Lagerfeld for Impulse Only at Macy’s” that will pop up in Macy’s stores and online from August 31st of this year. So if you’ve been coveting the gorgeous sillouhettes and dreamy fabrics Lagerfeld is so fond of using but don’t have a few thousand dollars just lying around, this is your lucky day. The Ponte Blush Dress above will retail for a paltry $99, and the Ponte and Poplin BW Dress below can be yours for just $139.
