2017 was full of groundbreaking fashion collaborations. Whether it was two mega-brands like Louis Vuitton and Supreme teaming up for their sold-out capsule collection, or a celebrated designer like J.W. Anderson producing a line for an affordable brand like Uniqlo, it seems like every few weeks there's a new partnership announced.
2018 may have just begun, but there is already a slew of highly anticipated fashion collaborations in the works, with high-end designers, artists, sportswear brands, and celebrities alike all getting in on the action. From Off-White's capsule collection with Jimmy Choo to Kaia Gerber's secret project with Karl Lagerfeld, scroll through to learn about the six biggest collabs set to drop this year.

Following on the heels of other top models like Gigi Hadid and Taylor Hill, Kaia Gerber has landed her first ever fashion collaboration. The 16 year old model will be partnering up with legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld's eponymous line for a collection that will feature ready-to-wear and accessories including footwear, sunglasses, and jewelry.
While not much else has been announced regarding the collaboration, a press release said the collection will "blend Karl Lagerfeld's timeless, Parisian-chic aesthetic with Kaia's L.A. inspirations and confident, original vision." If the sleek embellished glove Kaia is holding in the above photo is any indication of the upcoming collection, we can't wait to shop it when it drops in the Fall.

Off-White announced their collaboration with Jimmy Choo during their Spring 2018 show at Paris Fashion Week, and the fashion pack has been clamoring to get their hands on the fancy footwear ever since.
"Creative dreams were fulfilled when able to combine the young exuberance of Off-White and the storied elegance of Jimmy Choo," said Virgil Abloh, creative director for Off-White, on the collaboration. The full collection, which includes strappy sandals, tulle boots, plastic wrapped pumps and more, drops on Feb. 18, but you can preorder certain styles now at jimmychoo.com. Prices range from $745 to $1,995.
Victoria Beckham sent the fashion world into a frenzy last November when she announced to her 18 million Instagram followers that she was partnering with sportswear giant Reebok.
Not much has been released about the collection, that is set to drop in late 2018, but Victoria did say in a press release, "To have the opportunity to challenge the traditional notions of fitness wear within a fashion context is something I have always wanted to do. I have long incorporated sportswear into my wardrobe and daily life and I am thrilled to be coming together with Reebok on such a dynamic proposition." Keep checking Victoria's and Reebok's social media accounts throughout the year for updates on the collection.
Late last summer, Nicky Hilton announced that she was partnering with women's ready-to-wear brand Tolani on a "Mommy-and-me" collection for Spring 2018. Nicky is a huge fan of the brand and has been spotted in their gorgeous printed designs multiple times over the years, so it makes sense that they would team up for a capsule collection.
"I've been wearing Tolani for years, and this collection is very special to me because it's a way for me to connect with my daughter through fashion." The entire collection is made with 100 percent silk and features 20 pieces, including tops, shorts, and dresses, in both women's and girls' sizing. Prices range from $89-$139 for girls and $175-$275 for women's. Shop the line when it drops on February 16th at tolanicollection.com.

At their 10th Anniversary Runway Show during Fall 2018 NYFW, Cushnie et Ochs designers, Michelle Ochs and Carly Cushnie, announced that they were partnering with Lee Jeans on the Lee Body Optix collection.
According to a press release, the collaboration came about after both brands realized their "shared vision of empowering women with perfectly fitting clothes that make her feel strong and confident." With Michelle adding, "We are excited to pair our style sensibility with the unique way that Lee Body Optix enhances a woman's natural shape." Make room in your denim drawer for when the collection drops in the Fall.
