More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
A collection is not just one basic idea. It comes from something that is in the air, something you suddenly like and put down on paper and then work out.
Karl Lagerfeld
T-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fight against it. There's a price you have to pay for fame, and people who don't want to pay that price can get in trouble. I accepted the idea of celebrity because of a French expression: 'You cannot have the butter and the money for the butter.'
Karl Lagerfeld
I want everyone to wear what they want and mix it in their own way. That, to me, is what is modern.
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s great that in life you do something that you want to do because you like doing it and you’re not bored. I’m not bored at all. I’m even interested in lots of things, more so today than before.
Karl Lagerfeld
When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said - and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded - 'It's like hair color. It's nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. It's not a subject.' This was a very healthy attitude.
Karl Lagerfeld
I always think I'm lazy, maybe I could do better, I could make more effort and I always have the feeling that there is a glass wall that I cannot get through. But maybe when I get through, then it's over.
Karl Lagerfeld
Some models who aren't the most beautiful end up becoming the greatest of all time.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only wear the latest thing. It's my job.
Karl Lagerfeld
One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.
Karl Lagerfeld
No one wants to see curvy women.
Karl Lagerfeld
Children are the last thing I want. I hate all children. For other people, it's fine, but not for me. I was born not to be a family person.
Karl Lagerfeld
Clothes if they are not well cut, you can kill nobody. A building poorly built can kill people. It's a much more difficult work. I would not compare myself with that.
Karl Lagerfeld
There's something boring about people who have to go to an office for a living...
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
There is no marriage, yet, for human beings and animals. I never thought that I would fall in love like this with a cat.
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
I like girls to be wild but at the same time beautifully brought up and very funny.
Karl Lagerfeld
You have to like the present if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future.
Karl Lagerfeld
My life is based on change. What I say is OK for the next ten minutes, then I change my mind.
