For me, Chanel is like music. There are certain notes and you have to make another tune with them.

More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I've survived quite a few generations. That's because I never lost my enthusiasm. I wake up every morning like on Christmas Day, waiting for the gifts.
Karl Lagerfeld
I see things in the middle of the night. I draw them on paper and I don't even think about it. I'm like a machine in a way - just made of some electronic stuff. Vaguely digital.
Karl Lagerfeld
You know, I don't ask myself too much how. I just do it.
Karl Lagerfeld
No. I mean those people really did something for designers I don't think department stores can, could or should do still today. Today the world is different so you have to make it differently. There's TV. There's a lot of things.
Karl Lagerfeld
I love classic beauty. It’s an idea of beauty with no standard.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don’t do meetings. At Chanel, there are no meetings. At Chanel, we do what we want, whenever we want and it works. And Fendi is the same.
Karl Lagerfeld
A respectable appearance is sufficient to make people more interested in your soul
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't know what normal means, anyway.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like to do things quickly because I'm easily bored.
Karl Lagerfeld
The flat shoe makes the woman equal of men. When they have high [shoes], they play a part like a geisha, and they can't be expected to be taken that seriously.
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
Fashion keeps me designing: the love of change, the idea that the next one will be the right one, the nonstop dialogue
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
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
If I were pretentious I would say that I'm not an average person. But really, I know how that is.
Karl Lagerfeld
Greece needs to work on a cleaner image. It's a big problem, as they have this reputation of being so corrupt.
Karl Lagerfeld
We live in the world of images, but we also live in the world of the Internet, of zapping and where people move. You can make little videos on your phone. I love very composed images, but the idea of moving pictures with a story, with a plot is quite interesting, too.
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
Fashion is neither moral or immoral, but it is for rebuilding the morale.
Karl Lagerfeld
No, I have someone who comes to the house and washes it, puts in the dry shampoo, and takes care if it because I have no time.
Karl Lagerfeld
