Larousse 2009 Lagerfeld

The latest designer invited to design the cover of the holiday edition of France’s ‘Le Petit Larousse Illustre’ (an illustrated dictionary) is none other than Karl Lagerfeld.

The French reference book consists of a dictionary featuring common words and encyclopedia featuring proper nouns.

The limited edition book is covered in matte black featuring a corner illustration by Lagerfeld of the famous Larousse “Semeuse,” or “Seed-Scatterer,” blowing a puff of dandelion seeds in her birthday suit and a pair of blue, elbow-length gloves.”

On the black case itself there’s a sketch of Karl Lagerfeld himself with the words “Habille par Karl Lagerfeld” (“Dressed by Karl Lagerfeld”) in silver. Price : 49 euros.
