Karl Lagerfeld
Evolution is the secret for the next step.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't eat bubble gum, but I like the smell.

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

Karl Lagerfeld
I was never a feminist because I was never ugly enough for that.
Karl Lagerfeld
There's no Chanel collection without black. (It) will never exist. Who can live without some black clothes.
Karl Lagerfeld
Elegance has nothing to do with fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
Don't use your film for ugly purpose.
