I’m like a rock singer with one-night stands on the road. I’m here for two days in New York I leave in the morning early. I come back for Anna Wintour’s party at the Met, then again at the end of May for a prize I get from the Gordon Parks Foundation.

Karl Lagerfeld
Forget about your folklore. I can take a few inspirations, but I can certainly not do an homage. That's not my trip. I'm a fashion vampire. I take what I need and I leave the rest.
Karl Lagerfeld
You have to like the present if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future.
Karl Lagerfeld
When people want to be liked for what they did, they should stop.
Karl Lagerfeld
At my age, I don’t need to be a sexy bundle of muscles, thank you very much.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't understand the change of hair...Frankly, the fringe was a bad idea. It's not good.
Karl Lagerfeld
Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion -- it exists to be destroyed. If everybody did everything with respect, you'd go nowhere.

I'm like a rock singer with one-night stands on the road.
Karl Lagerfeld
My job is to bring out in people what they wouldn't dare do themselves.
Karl Lagerfeld
There are so many third-rate people now who are more famous than people who should be famous, but sometimes people who could or should be famous are very boring, too.
Karl Lagerfeld
People are very nice to me, even though I'm known for saying rude things.

What I do Coco would have hated. The label has an image and it's up to me to update it. I do what she never did. I had to find my mark. I had to go from what Chanel was to what it should be, could be, what it had been to something else.
