KARL LAGERFELD and ModelCo celebrated the global launch of their limited-edition colour cosmetics collection yesterday, with a guerrilla-style activation in Paris.

A mob of 100 KARL LAGERFELD + MODELCO “Beauty Butlers” travelled to iconic landmarks throughout the city — including the Eiffel Tower, Les Tuileries, Champs Elysées, Saint-Germain-des-Près, Montparnasse and Opéra — all wearing custom-designed helmets with a 3D cartoon reinterpretation of Karl Lagerfeld. This design is also a key element in the collection, and appears on the LIP LIGHTS Lip Gloss, one of the hero products.

The butlers’ final performance took place at Place Vendôme in front of the Hotel D’Evreux where the official launch event took place. The entire space was transformed with hot pink décor and installations.  VIP Guests included Kaya Scodelario, Caro Daur, Dilone, Mrs Bella, Sananas, Samar Siraqui de Buttafoco, Jaad Belgaid, Rafael Miller, Tarik Lakehal, Vanessa Axente and Ines Rau
