Elegance has nothing to do with fashion.

I don't eat bubble gum, but I like the smell.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion -- it exists to be destroyed. If everybody did everything with respect, you'd go nowhere.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
I don't like to act because my life is a pantomime anyway.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
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.

Image
What I like about music is the songs you can remember the lines of in a single second.

Image
Fashion designers are dictators of taste.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image

Karl Lagerfeld
Image
Nothing scares me more than people with some doll collection.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
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
Image
I never had to learn English, French and German because I was brought up as all three languages. I had a private French teacher before I even went to school. That helped a lot.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
I never played with anything like toys. I wanted to be grown-up.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
The purpose of life is life.
Karl Lagerfeld
Image
I hate amateurs. I hate unprofessional people. There are enough people who can do jobs decently that there's no reason that people who cannot do them decently [should] pretend to be great at it.

Lana del Rey is not bad at all. She looks very much like a modern-time singer. In her photos she is beautiful. Is she a construct with all her implants? She's not alone with implants.
