Ever wondered what Karl Lagerfeld's girl would wear to the gym? Well wonder no more...

Uncle Karl has been snapped up by our new favourite e-commerce site, Zalando (which also stocks Zac Posen, Vivienne Westwood and Michael Kors) to create an 18-piece capsule collection, Sport City inspired by sportswear shapes and the urban jungle.

Not one to forget his fashion roots and be spotted in a pair of sports shorts, Karl has created a sports-influenced ready-to-wear collection which mixes fabrics usually relegated to the playing field with street ready styles to create a hyper-modern aesthetic fit for any cosmopolitan girl.

If that wasn’t enough to draw you in, Karl’s preened kitty Choupette makes several low-key appearances throughout, complete with sunglasses and baseball cap on a covetable tote, which could double up as a gym bag (if you’re feeling like it). 

We’re particularly in love with the sleek bomber jacket, platform trainers which add height without the pain and the sliders which are lido ready.

With prices ranging from £34 to £330 there's something for every girl on the run.
