More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I don't care if people I admire criticize me because their opinion is valuable to me.
Karl Lagerfeld
If I read too much or know too much it's not because I want to talk about it, it's only because it's interesting for me.
Karl Lagerfeld
If you attach no importance to weight problems, if not being able to wear new, trendy small-sized clothes does not cause you any regret, this book is not for you.
Karl Lagerfeld
I can't wait for the iPhone 6. It's my only ambition in life to have it quickly.
Karl Lagerfeld
I never - you know also one of the things that would save me for a man my age, it was not that easy to lose that much weight and fall down and look like something draped.
Karl Lagerfeld
I never go anywhere. I do sketches and make phone calls, and people visit. It's more fun to come to Paris.
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
It's only I have seen enough of it and the funny thing is now, I know that I'm skinny, because I know there are even smaller clothes in the store. I think I'm big, when I was big, I never thought about it.
Karl Lagerfeld
Forget about your folklore. I can take a few inspirations, but I can certainly not do an homage. That's not my trip. I'm a fashion vampire. I take what I need and I leave the rest.
Karl Lagerfeld
When people want to be liked for what they did, they should stop.
Karl Lagerfeld
Elegance has nothing to do with fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
Nothing scares me more than people with some doll collection.
Karl Lagerfeld
We live in a dark and romantic and quite tragic world.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't want to do anything over again, ever again. I want only to do what I haven't done. There's no again. There's only the future. I hate the past - especially my own past.
Karl Lagerfeld
If I were pretentious I would say that I'm not an average person. But really, I know how that is.
Karl Lagerfeld
No one wants to see curvy women.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion and music are the same, because music express its period too.
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’m very much down to earth, just not this earth.
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.
