More quotes by 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
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
What I like about music is the songs you can remember the lines of in a single second.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fake chic but you can be chic and fake fur
Karl Lagerfeld
There are so many third-rate people now who are more famous than people who should be famous, but sometimes people who could or should be famous are very boring, too.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am a black diamond, unfaceted. Black diamonds are rare, hard to cut, and therefore uncommercial.
Karl Lagerfeld
Guilty feelings about clothes are totally unnecessary. A lot of people earn their living by making clothes, so you should never feel bad.
Karl Lagerfeld
They're my burka... I'm a little shortsighted, and people, when they're shortsighted, they remove their glasses and then they look like cute little dogs who want to be adopted.
Karl Lagerfeld
If there's something dangerous, sauces are dangerous for the body.
Karl Lagerfeld
Things have to be beautifully made, even if they are full of fun, fantasy and futility
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
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
The first thing I do when I get up, I have breakfast.
Karl Lagerfeld
If you throw money out of the window throw it out with joy. Don’t say: 'one shouldn't do that' - that is bourgeois.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm never content with what I do. I live in a sort of permanent dissatisfaction. I think that's the secret to doing things well.
Karl Lagerfeld
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
Kate Middleton has a nice silhouette and she is the right girl for that boy. I like that kind of woman, I like romantic beauties. On the other hand, her sister struggles. I don't like the sister's face. She should only show her back.
Karl Lagerfeld
Forgiveness is too easy. I can forget by indifference, but not forgive. I prefer revenge.
Karl Lagerfeld
Stuff your brain with knowledge.
Karl Lagerfeld
Personally, I don't wear fur.
