More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
When people want to be liked for what they did, they should stop.
Karl Lagerfeld
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.
Karl Lagerfeld
Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books.
Karl Lagerfeld
Some people would like me to be round again.
Karl Lagerfeld
To reinvent a newly impeccable you in the most modern of outfits, don't skip on makeup and be sure to have flawless skin and hair. That will have more impact than expensive clothes.
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
T-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
For every book you buy, you should buy the time to read it.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm born with a pencil in my hand. I did lots of sketching.
Karl Lagerfeld
The couture is what a certain kind of clientele wears. But it's amusing to do because you do it piece by piece. It's another concept. It's much more work.
Karl Lagerfeld
My childhood was endless - from eight to 18 felt like hundreds of years.
Karl Lagerfeld
Beauty is also submitted to the taste of time, so a beautiful woman from the Belle Epoch is not exactly the perfect beauty of today, so beauty is something that changes with time.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't care if people I admire criticize me because their opinion is valuable to me.
Karl Lagerfeld
I want everyone to wear what they want and mix it in their own way. That, to me, is what is modern.
Karl Lagerfeld
Yes, and I can sit down on a white piece of paper and work because I don't believe too much into inspiration, only I'm waiting for inspiration, work and then inspiration may come. It's a little too easy to say that.
Karl Lagerfeld
There will never be a chanel collection without black
Karl Lagerfeld
Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.
Karl Lagerfeld
I hate amateurs. I hate unprofessional people. There are enough people who can do jobs decently that there's no reason that people who cannot do them decently [should] pretend to be great at it.
Karl Lagerfeld
A book has to be easy to open and you don't have to be a bodybuilder to lift it. I like books I can read in bed. Those big tombstones would kill me.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion keeps me designing: the love of change, the idea that the next one will be the right one, the nonstop dialogue
