Karl's World


These cheeky illustrations by aleXsandro Palombo depict Karl Lagerfeld in all his fabulosity jetting around Paris.
I found them to be quite amusing.
Let's see if we can create a short story about them.

I'll start:


Karl was in agony because he was forced to take the metro because all of the cab drivers in Paris were abducted by aliens.

Now, you!


From the Gourmet Traveller:
Karl is bemused that it takes three poorly dressed workmen to do one man's work, poorly. Sneering, he mutters, 'The background poster is not even hung correctly. Who hired these simpletons?' ... (who wants to write the next part?)

For the final illustration, when Karl meets his extraterrestrial equivalent, I thought a funny caption would have been: Karl sighed, absent-mindedly smoothing his lapel as he looked at the impeccably, but similarly-dressed being. "Bitch," he sighed. "You should have called."
