I like chocolate. I don’t eat it, but I like the smell of it. People can drink with their eyes I can eat with my nose. I would love to have a perfume based on chocolate.
Karl Lagerfeld
Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books.
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
What is the worst is a fashion designer who talks all the time of his or her creativity, what they are, how they evolved. Just do it and shut up.
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
Sunglasses are like eye shadow: They make everything look younger and pretty
Karl Lagerfeld
Forgiveness isn’t something I’m preoccupied with — turning the other cheek isn’t my trip.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.
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
No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only go to places if I have a professional reason. I'm not a tourist.
Karl Lagerfeld
Everything I say is a joke. I am a joke myself.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion is about two things: the evolution and the opposite.
Karl Lagerfeld
No one wants to see curvy women.
Karl Lagerfeld
The couture is what a certain kind of clientele wears. But it's amusing to do because you do it piece by piece. It's another concept. It's much more work.
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
Black, like white, is the best color!
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
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 was never a feminist because I was never ugly enough for that.
