More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I don't like to act because my life is a pantomime anyway.
Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion is a language that creates itself in clothes to interpret reality.
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

Karl Lagerfeld
I only go to places if I have a professional reason. I'm not a tourist.
Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld
Children are the last thing I want. I hate all children. For other people, it's fine, but not for me. I was born not to be a family person.
Karl Lagerfeld
Don't dress to kill, dress to survive.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only wear the latest thing. It's my job.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't know Heidi Klum. She was never known in France. Claudia Schiffer also doesn't know who she is.
Karl Lagerfeld
Buy clothes the size you want to wear.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm not a marketing person. I don't ask myself questions. I go by instinct.
Karl Lagerfeld
Sunglasses are like eye shadow: They make everything look younger and pretty
Karl Lagerfeld
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only know how to play one role: me.
Karl Lagerfeld
Don’t wear what you question, wear what you think is right for you.
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s up to you to make everyday as perfect as possible. It’s a question of will and discipline.
Karl Lagerfeld
