The House of Lagerfeld Meets the Loafer Strap, Seven Ways

Karl Lagerfeld and G.H. Bass have teamed up on shoes, and the result comes in seven designs cut for both men and women. The heart of it is that slim leather band across the vamp, the one generations of wearers have tucked a coin into. It's a shoe that works just as well on a Palm Beach lunch terrace as on a New York sidewalk on the way into the office. We'll take one of each and argue about the socks later.
