KARL LAGERFELD x BOSA: a collaboration showcasing two exclusive sculptures that reinterpret the designer’s signature style


The collection celebrates #karllagerfeld with limited-edition, handmade pieces crafted from ceramics and 24 karat gold and platinum paints.

#karllagerfeld and #bosa are pleased to announce a special #collaboration to be exhibited as part of the Salone Del Mobile, taking place in Milan from April 18 to 23, 2023 (@Bosa booth: Hall 2 – stand H21). The collection will be available on KARL.COM, at select #karllagerfeld boutiques and selected #bosa retailers worldwide.

The #karllagerfeld X #bosa collection is comprised of two distinctive sculptures inspired by the signature look that made #karllagerfeld himself an instantly recognizable figure. These creative reimaginings are elevated homages to his endless ability to create and #design from an innovative perspective.

POP KARL is a humorous and playful representation embracing Karl’s irony and wit. Designer Elena Salmistraro known for her imaginative touch, uses color and contrast to create a vivid, textured piece while Nika Zupanc’s  ROCK KARL, captures his signature look in more monochromatic tones: black suit, white shirt, and dark sunglasses. She brings this iconic style to life by adding a pop of color to the dentelle collar and a brushed gold hue for the fingerless gloves. Each piece measures 41cm in height and 18cm in width.

A shared commitment to honoring heritage and mastery of their respective crafts is what led #karllagerfeld to partner with #bosa. An internationally renowned ceramics workshop in the Venetian countryside, #bosa has a reputation for excellent craftmanship in its entirely handmade pieces. This passion forms the heart of this #collaboration and ensures that each piece remains unique, recognizable and of the finest quality.
