Maybe the glasses serve as disguise

"[The collection] is not aggressive. It's not to show other people that you have more money than them; it's to show your friends that you're more beautiful than them."

Come now. How could a man who utters such endearingly pretentious bon mots be an enemy of the Red Army?
Well, according to The Guardian, perma-be(sun)spectacled fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld was just that. Apparently Lagerfeld was selected from "an array" of prominent Germans as a prime target for kidnapping due to his personal wealth and personification of capitalism.
Good thing The Reds backed off, or else the proletariat wouldn't know who to turn to feel bad about themselves.
