Want to make helmet hair sexy? Karl Lagerfeld provided us with the newest in luxury bike wear.

A mink coated helmet, complete with iPod capability can transform the embarrassing safety necessity into a sexy status symbol.

The revolutionary idea was brought together by the three way collaboration of designer, Karl Lagerfeld, French Luxury helmet maker, Les Ateliers Ruby, and Apple.

Ultra-soft burgundy nappa lambskin linings grant the rider comfort and the full carbon fiber shells offer protection and make the street safety devices lawful.

Apple placed an iPod hook up that directly puts music to your ears which can help distract from loud road noises.

The creativity behind the line rests with the man who also heads Chanel and Fendi, Karl Lagerfield.

Matching mink vests and other garments were created to compliment and elaborate on the fashionable qualities of the revolutionary helmet.

Lagerfeld comments on the correlation between the reassessed economy and this new fashion, “Now everyone is on scooters, even chic women, so we had to do the helmet,” When this exciting newly invented accessory will be available to the public, is yet to be released, but when it is, you can count on it being extremely costly.
