What i like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.
Karl Lagerfeld
For me, Chanel is like music. There are certain notes and you have to make another tune with them.
Karl Lagerfeld
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.

During the golden age of movie stars, there were plenty of actresses who were deemed unattractive at the start of their careers, but struggled and finally appeared more beautiful and more iconic. Sometimes that idea of being truly iconic has something to do with not necessarily being beautiful and thus trying harder.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like to be on TV when interviewers are good. I like it especially when it's live. When they can cut things, I don't like it as much. Sometimes they cut something and say, Well, you would get in trouble, you would get a lawsuit. I tell them, Well, I don't want my lawyers to be unemployed.
Karl Lagerfeld
You have to lead your life according to your ideas. Spend all your money and live life in line with what you are fighting for. I hate it when rich people try to be Communists. I think that’s obscene.
Karl Lagerfeld
We built everything - toilets included. I think those islands in the middle of nowhere are quite poetic. It's kind of an Oriental Atlantis.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm rather pro-prostitution, I admire people who do it. It can't be much fun. Thank goodness for it. People need relief or they become murderers.
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
I'm born with a pencil in my hand. I did lots of sketching.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm open to everything. When you start to criticize the times you live in, your time is over.
Karl Lagerfeld
EXTREME LUXURY ISN'T THE MOST BLING-BLING, IT'S EXTREME REFINEMENT, WHICH IS COUTURE AT ITS FINEST.
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
There will be gay couples it will exist. It is not very nice that people who are married - who divorce in three seconds - don’t want protection for the others. The legal system should protect everyone, not just the few people who think they are above everybody else because they are married.
Karl Lagerfeld
Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books.
Karl Lagerfeld
Success nullifies. You then have to do it again, preferably differently.
Karl Lagerfeld
People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory.
Karl Lagerfeld
Chic is a kind of mayonnaise, either it tastes, or it doesn't.
Karl Lagerfeld
I do my job like I breathe — so if I can’t breathe I’m in trouble.
Karl Lagerfeld
People who say that yesterday was better than today are ultimately devaluing their own existence.
