I am a black diamond, unfaceted. Black diamonds are rare, hard to cut, and therefore uncommercial.

More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion is what people wear not only what you see on the Runway
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
There's no Chanel collection without black. (It) will never exist. Who can live without some black clothes.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm not a marketing person. I don't ask myself questions. I go by instinct.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like to do things quickly because I'm easily bored.
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
Dress for yourself and the man you love (if there is one). Women dressing to impress other women--forget about that. Forget about that. It's a very bad way of thinking.
Karl Lagerfeld
I rather want my things to be copied than me copying. I would feel ashamed!
Karl Lagerfeld
Everything I say is a joke. I am a joke myself.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't know Heidi Klum. She was never known in France. Claudia Schiffer also doesn't know who she is.
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
Sometimes it's easy to have ideas, but somebody has to find a way to do it. Often those responsible for finding a way don't have the idea.
Karl Lagerfeld
Success nullifies. You then have to do it again, preferably differently.
Karl Lagerfeld
Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
Buy clothes the size you want to wear.
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
A sense of humour and a little lack of respect: That's what you need to make a legend survive.
Karl Lagerfeld
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.
Karl Lagerfeld
The French say you get hungry when you’re eating, and I get inspired when I’m working. It’s my engine.
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.
Karl Lagerfeld
