"   Photo: Macys  &amp;quot;I love occasional co-branding,&amp;quot; Karl Lagerfeld said to WWD. It may be the understatement of the year. When he&amp;#039;s not designing Chanel and Fendi, the designer shoots Mango commercials, stars in Volkswagon ads, does sneakers for Hogan and curates shops with Colette. He was also the first to kick off fashion&amp;#039;s collaboration craze with a sellout H&amp;amp;amp;M collection in 2004. So really, a line with Macy&amp;#039;s isn&amp;#039;t such a stretch. Macy&amp;#039;s EVP said the hardest part of working with Lagerfeld was editing, &amp;quot;He had so many great ideas.&amp;quot; But they managed to narrow it down to 45 styles, especially &amp;quot;statement jackets, tweeds, novelty fabrics, and dresses&amp;quot; with an average price point of $100. There will be graphic tees and leggings in the mix, to wear with those croc print jackets and &amp;quot;shocking pink&amp;quot; tops. As for Lagerfeld, he says Macy&amp;#039;s is &amp;quot;the perfect department store in the U.S., where everybody can find what they&amp;#039;re looking for without ruining their budget.&amp;quot; He&amp;#039;ll be at Macy&amp;#039;s in Herald Square this September to meet customers and greet his fans, but you can catch the collection online starting August 31st.
