More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Life is not a beauty contest, some [ugly people] are great. What I hate is nasty, ugly people... the worst is ugly, short men. Women can be short, but for men it is impossible. It is something that they will not forgive in life... they are mean and they want to kill you.
Karl Lagerfeld
No, I never thought I would like cats.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't have prejudices. I'm against taboos. But of course there are some things I'll never touch - because as a mom, there are things one doesn't want their children to be around.
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
Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books.

Of course there are some evening dresses that you cannot wear in daylight because it would be ridiculous, but there is a kind of dressy touch for daywear, too, ... And everything, it's easy. There's no barrier between dressy, day and sports. It's feminine 24 hours a day.
Karl Lagerfeld
I hate leisure, except reading. I'm really a person made to work, if sketching is considered work.
Karl Lagerfeld
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm born with a pencil in my hand. I did lots of sketching.
Karl Lagerfeld
I’m very much down to earth, just not this earth.
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
I like to reinvent myself — it’s part of 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
Because I stopped dieting already six months ago, and I think it's important to bring out a book like this and you are there a year later and say look, I'm still like this.
Karl Lagerfeld
Buy clothes the size you want to wear.
Karl Lagerfeld
Nothing makes you look older than attempting to look young. You can fool anyone, apart from the young. The worst are the lip operations. There are people who have it done and I don't recognise them afterwards. They look like they flew through the windscreen during a car accident and were patched up badly afterwards.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm not a social person. Not that I'm not at ease. I'm pretty good, but it bores me. Not the people, but the whole thing. What for? It's not very productive. I only want to do what I have to do: fashion, photography, books. And that's all.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only know how to play one role: me.
