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.

When people want to be liked for what they did, they should stop.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Fashion is a language that creates itself in clothes to interpret reality.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
Fashion and music are the same, because music express its period too.
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.

We live in the world of images, but we also live in the world of the Internet, of zapping and where people move. You can make little videos on your phone. I love very composed images, but the idea of moving pictures with a story, with a plot is quite interesting, too.

People who say that yesterday was better than today are ultimately devaluing their own existence.
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
Image
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.

Some models who aren't the most beautiful end up becoming the greatest of all time.

Luxury is the income tax of vanity. But it is so pleasant.

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.

Personally, I don't wear fur.

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.
