Discover KARL LAGERFELD's Fall-Winter 2022 Men’s collection. This season the collection draws inspiration from retro-futuristic science fiction with elevated references to beauty and positivity.

A mix of materials, including recycled and organically sourced fabrics, different-sized fits, and shiny and matte textiles are also showcased.

The collection also sees an increase in sustainable styles approaches, with a focused offering of more environmentally conscious materials and selected, transformable pieces that can be worn in multiple ways. It further celebrates the brand’s iconic, rock-chic style codes as well as the KARL LAGERFELD House monogram, while embracing the spirit of the times in the form of gender-neutral looks as well as seasonal prints and colors. Moreover, tonal and discreet camouflage patterns in black, blue, and other hues, make an appearance on sportier styles like workwear pants, jersey t-shirts, as well as selected sweaters.

This is a transformer style with zip-off sleeves so it can just easily be worn as a gilet. Additional head-turning options aligned with the futuristic theme include a two-tone, degradé lightweight jacket made with reflective materials. This styles pairs well with items in the accessories collection that were designed to match this distinctive, avant-garde color approach.
