Karl Lagerfeld is to launch a new affordable collection in January.

The flamboyant designer has created a 100-piece women's line - which will retail from $95 to $450 - and the Karl Collection will be available on Net-a-porter from January 25 with sales on karllagerfeld.com to come on February 28.

Karl said of the new range: "It's my today's taste and style and a reflection of how I think a great number of people would like to be dressed now."
