More quotes by 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
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
Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.
Karl Lagerfeld
I rather want my things to be copied than me copying. I would feel ashamed!
Karl Lagerfeld
Lana del Rey is not bad at all. She looks very much like a modern-time singer. In her photos she is beautiful. Is she a construct with all her implants? She's not alone with implants.
Karl Lagerfeld
Some models who aren't the most beautiful end up becoming the greatest of all time.
Karl Lagerfeld
Chic is a kind of mayonnaise, either it tastes, or it doesn't.
Karl Lagerfeld
The story with anorexic girls - nobody works with anorexic girls. That has nothing to do with fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s up to you to make everyday as perfect as possible. It’s a question of will and discipline.
Karl Lagerfeld
What I like about music is the songs you can remember the lines of in a single second.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion and music are the same, because music express its period too.
Karl Lagerfeld
I always loved advertising. If I hadn't been in fashion, I'd have been in advertising.
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
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
Fortunately there is more wealth in the world than there was at the time of the global economic crisis of 1929 - Chinese, Indian, Arab and Russian.
Karl Lagerfeld
I think everyone should go to bed like they have a date at the door.
Karl Lagerfeld
Keep the best, forget the rest.
Karl Lagerfeld
Forgiveness is too easy. I can forget by indifference, but not forgive. I prefer revenge.
Karl Lagerfeld
Youthfulness is about how you live not when you were born.
Karl Lagerfeld
But if I have a lot of imagination, I could tell myself whatever I wanted, you know. I handle myself quite well. I'm kind of fascist with myself, you know. There's no discussion. There is an order. You follow it.
Karl Lagerfeld
