A Custom Collection
A few years ago, my wife’s company had a get together at CAMRaleigh, the modern art museum. After some mingling, the boys and I camped out in the staff offices. The desk where I sat had numerous pictures of Karl Lagerfeld. I might have felt a little uncomfortable at the man’s ubiquitous gaze, but his surgically attached sunglasses prevented that.
I don’t have much to say about Lagerfeld’s life or work, but apparently he had excellent taste in iPods. Check out these custom Nanos.
Macstories covers the estate sale from Southeby’s where Lagerfeld’s collection is being auctioned. Like John Voorhees, who wrote the piece, I’ll always be a big fan of the iPod. I harbor the same irrational hope that one day Apple will bring it back to please those of us who love single-use devices. In the meantime, I suppose I could put in my bid for one of Lagerfeld’s over 500 that are being sold.
