More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Nothing makes you look older than attempting to look young. You can fool anyone, apart from the young. The worst are the lip operations. There are people who have it done and I don't recognise them afterwards. They look like they flew through the windscreen during a car accident and were patched up badly afterwards.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.
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
There's something boring about people who have to go to an office for a living...
Karl Lagerfeld
The story with anorexic girls - nobody works with anorexic girls. That has nothing to do with fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don't want to look sloppy, because then I feel sloppy
Karl Lagerfeld
I think tattoos are horrible. It's like living in a Pucci dress full-time.

Karl Lagerfeld
It's never too early to care about fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
Fashion keeps me designing: the love of change, the idea that the next one will be the right one, the nonstop dialogue
Karl Lagerfeld
Of course there are some evening dresses that you cannot wear in daylight because it would be ridiculous, but there is a kind of dressy touch for daywear, too, ... And everything, it's easy. There's no barrier between dressy, day and sports. It's feminine 24 hours a day.
Karl Lagerfeld
At my age, I don’t need to be a sexy bundle of muscles, thank you very much.
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
People who say that yesterday was better than today are ultimately devaluing their own existence.
Karl Lagerfeld
We built everything - toilets included. I think those islands in the middle of nowhere are quite poetic. It's kind of an Oriental Atlantis.
Karl Lagerfeld
No, I never thought I would like cats.
Karl Lagerfeld
Chic is a kind of mayonnaise, either it tastes, or it doesn't.
