Lego unveils Anna Wintour models ahead of New York Fashion

Fashion icons Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld were turned into Lego figurines in honor of the upcoming New York Fashion Week.
The replicas were created by model builder Veronica Watson out of 400 Lego bricks and are currently on display at LegoLand Discovery Center in Westchester.
"I am always looking for fun building projects centered on events in New York like Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week," Watson told the New York Daily News. "One of the really fun things about this build was drawing inspiration from some of the very iconic characters found in the world of fashion."
The Lego versions of Wintour and Lagerfelt took two hours to build and stand tall at 4.5 and five inches respectively.
Lego models of Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld have been unveiled ahead of New York Fashion Week 2015. The fashion moguls appear pictured in 2011.
Last year Lego pulled similar stunt when it created figurines based on the likeness of Lagerfeld, Donatella Versace, Alber Elbaz and Marc Jacobs for Haper's Bazaar.
