Claudia Schiffer's Breast Inspires Karl Lagerfeld

It's said that the champagne coupe is inspired by Queen Marie Antoinette's breast. Karl Lagerfeld took that idea and ran with it in the form of a new breast-shaped bowl that is based on the estimable bosom of German supermodel Claudia Schiffer's bosom.. Lagerfeld's version is a generous bowl with a rosy base which sits on a stand of three porcelain replicas of Dom Pérignon and a platter signed by Lagerfeld and Schiffer. It will be sold for with a bottle 1995 Dom Pérignon Oenothèque for $3,150. It seems a bit ungainly for drinking but I suppose the goal here was admiration and not utility.
