There are modelizers and then there are model-Kaisers. Who’s the biggest model mac daddy, you ask? Well, it’s Uncle Karl, of course. He doesn’t date them but always has a fleet of them in his ensemble cast of beauties, male and female.

His plum-sized pearl baubles for the SS14 Chanel show were likely inspired by his posse of perfect posers and their penchant for hip hop. Uncle Karl, too has been known to drop a beat or two.








That eccentric Uncle of ours, always so tuned in.
