Cuddle Up with Karl Lagerfeld

Or at least the soon-to-be-released Steiff teddy bear version of the designer, photographer, bibliophile, and all-around cultural icon. Next Friday in Berlin, the German plush toy manufacturer will premiere its limited edition Karl Lagerfeld bear (pictured at right). The ursine Lagerfeld, made of white alpaca wool and standing 15 inches tall, sports aviator sunglasses and what looks to be the tiniest ever Dior Homme ensemble; the initials “K L” sparkle from his jewel-encrusted belt buckle.
