More quotes by 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
Fashion is about two things: the evolution and the opposite.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like today and perhaps a little future still, but the past is really something I'm not interested in. So, as far as I'm concerned, I like only the past of things and people I don't know. When I know, I don't care because I knew how it was.
Karl Lagerfeld
People in magazines are 50% bimbo and 50% pregnant women.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fake chic but you can be chic and fake fur
Karl Lagerfeld
They are this horrible thing where you are distorted. The chin is too big, the head is too small. No, this is electronic masturbation.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion is a language that creates itself in clothes to interpret reality.
Karl Lagerfeld
In fact, I don't even know myself. That is the big secret of the story. That there is no story.
Karl Lagerfeld
I only know how to play one role: me.
Karl Lagerfeld
I rather want my things to be copied than me copying. I would feel ashamed!
Karl Lagerfeld
What I hate most in life are people who are not really the peach of the day but who want to be young and sexy. You can fool nobody. There is a moment when you have to accept that somebody else is younger and fresher and hotter. Life is not a beauty contest.
Karl Lagerfeld
I am like a caricature of myself, and I like that. It is like a mask. And for me the Carnival of Venice lasts all year long.
Karl Lagerfeld
I hate birthdays, .. It's more like a new starting point in New York. For me, it's an evolution. I don't celebrate the past. I like the present and tomorrow.
Karl Lagerfeld
In France there are, I think, less than one per cent of people who are too skinny.
Karl Lagerfeld
Beauty with character ages better than perfection.
Karl Lagerfeld
The first thing I do when I get up, I have breakfast.
Karl Lagerfeld
Foreigners don't want to invest any more in France - and this is not working.
Karl Lagerfeld
Tell me, why do former young designers who are now in their middle 40s have to redo the 1960s and 70s. Why they cannot invent fashion for today?
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
I think for my bones and my size, I better stay with my 60 kilo.
Karl Lagerfeld
