More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
No, I never thought I would like cats.
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
No, and I never, ever eat in between the meals. I control it well enough and with no pills, and I sleep seven hours a night. I go to bed. I fall asleep, and I wake up seven hours later, and this is the most important.
Karl Lagerfeld
Keep the best, forget the rest.
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
I'm not a social person. Not that I'm not at ease. I'm pretty good, but it bores me. Not the people, but the whole thing. What for? It's not very productive. I only want to do what I have to do: fashion, photography, books. And that's all.
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
Buy clothes the size you want to wear.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like girls to be wild but at the same time beautifully brought up and very funny.
Karl Lagerfeld
A sense of humour and a little lack of respect: That's what you need to make a legend survive.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am a completely different person when I am working on different collections.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am not a second option person. It is that or nothing. If it is not the way I see it I prefer not to see it.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't care if people I admire criticize me because their opinion is valuable to me.
Karl Lagerfeld
Vanity is the healthiest thing in life.
Karl Lagerfeld
Chic is a kind of mayonnaise, either it tastes, or it doesn't.
Karl Lagerfeld
Forgiveness is too easy. I can forget by indifference, but not forgive. I prefer revenge.
Karl Lagerfeld
I've only wanted paper and beautiful colors. It was my dream, and it still is my dream. And books. They're all I need, and the rest I can do without.
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
I don't have prejudices. I'm against taboos. But of course there are some things I'll never touch - because as a mom, there are things one doesn't want their children to be around.
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.
