Black and white will also provide the palette for Lagerfeld's footwear and apparel capsule collaboration with Vans. The collection will be presented at Bread & Butter in Berlin (September 1-3, 2017), and made available worldwide from September 7, 2017.

For the partnership, the two brands have decided to combine their two universes. Vans's signature checkerboard pattern will be restyled to feature a cameo motif of Lagerfeld's iconic profile, and the pieces will also sport a quilted letter "K".
