More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Seduction is, first and foremost, an art form. And seduction should not always be treated as a wild celebration. In fact, it's more of an evocation of what you do. It's more an evocation of seduction.
Karl Lagerfeld
Luxury bags make your life more pleasant, make you dream, give you confidence, and show your neighbors you are doing well.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't like to act because my life is a pantomime anyway.
Karl Lagerfeld
Dress for yourself and the man you love (if there is one). Women dressing to impress other women--forget about that. Forget about that. It's a very bad way of thinking.
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
Buy what you don’t have yet, or what you really want, which can be mixed with what you already own. Buy only because something excites you, not just for the simple act of shopping.
Karl Lagerfeld
Music gives color to the air of the moment.
Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld
For every book you buy, you should buy the time to read it.
Karl Lagerfeld
I do my job like I breathe — so if I can’t breathe I’m in trouble.

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
Life should be larger than life. Size is important to escape normalization.
Karl Lagerfeld
I hate birthdays, .. It's more like a new starting point in New York. For me, it's an evolution. I don't celebrate the past. I like the present and tomorrow.
Karl Lagerfeld
A respectable appearance is sufficient to make people more interested in your soul
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
In fact, I don't even know myself. That is the big secret of the story. That there is no story.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fight against it. There's a price you have to pay for fame, and people who don't want to pay that price can get in trouble. I accepted the idea of celebrity because of a French expression: 'You cannot have the butter and the money for the butter.'
Karl Lagerfeld
Nothing scares me more than people with some doll collection.
