>> INSIDER WIRE —Karl Lagerfeld is famous for his hundreds of iPods (among other things), and he's even designed a Fendi trunk specifically for the storage of multiple iPods. For his personal storage needs, however, he commisioned a bespoke trunk from Louis Vuitton — one that costs tens of thousands of dollars — to carry 20 iPods plus their accessories, with his initials stamped near the handle.

>> ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL —Karl Lagerfeld must have learned his lesson after paparazzi spoiled his Fall 2008 Fendi campaign, because last week, he shot the brand's Spring 2009 campaign inside at Milk Studios, with "pieces of furniture against a backdrop of photos of classical Italian sites." This week, he's at his new house in Vermont, suspected to be the one at left, where's he's shooting the Chanel Spring 2009 campaign. [On the Runway]
Fendi Spring 2009: Delicate Dresses, Big Belted
Thu, 09/25/08 — 04:08:55 PM
>> Crazy bird's nest hair aside, Spring 2009 Fendi is quite pretty. And actually, the hair grows on you, too, if you digest it for a minute. The femininity of laser-cut eyelet, full skirted dresses, and sheer pencil skirt petticoats underneath is juxtaposed with bold, graphic corset belts and neon bright underpinnings. Suzy Menkes wasn't such a fan of the styling, calling it "a weird cross breed of sport and lingerie," and neither was WWD, who said the belts "maimed the middle of all too many looks," but I think it goes quite well, keeps things unexpected. Now if only Karl Lagerfeld had edited out that one look that is like Prada Fall 2008 redux . . . because Karl, you're better than that.
