Now there’s summer whites, and there’s summer whites. Behold Karl Lagerfeld‘s take on the warm weather garb: White-wash jeans, skinny bianco blazer, tuxedo-inspired button-down, tied together with dark accessories: Grey gloves, black star-spangled cravat, and—could it be?! —shiny black spats. (Note the uncropped photo below: Even Lagerfeld’s surprisingly surfer-looking hanger-on can’t believe the Kaiser’s choice in footwear.) Considering the garments are anything but breezy, clearly it’s is own inimitable charm that’s keeping him cool. X S.C.
