More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I like to be on TV when interviewers are good. I like it especially when it's live. When they can cut things, I don't like it as much. Sometimes they cut something and say, Well, you would get in trouble, you would get a lawsuit. I tell them, Well, I don't want my lawyers to be unemployed.
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
My job is to bring out in people what they wouldn't dare do themselves.
Karl Lagerfeld
Evolution is the secret for the next step.
Karl Lagerfeld
For me, Chanel is like music. There are certain notes and you have to make another tune with them.
Karl Lagerfeld
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.
Karl Lagerfeld
The advantage of Fashion is that there is no racism
Karl Lagerfeld
When I was four, I asked my mother for a valet for my birthday.
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
I've survived quite a few generations. That's because I never lost my enthusiasm. I wake up every morning like on Christmas Day, waiting for the gifts.
Karl Lagerfeld
No. I mean those people really did something for designers I don't think department stores can, could or should do still today. Today the world is different so you have to make it differently. There's TV. There's a lot of things.
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
One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.
Karl Lagerfeld
I'm not a social person. Not that I'm not at ease. I'm pretty good, but it bores me. Not the people, but the whole thing. What for? It's not very productive. I only want to do what I have to do: fashion, photography, books. And that's all.
Karl Lagerfeld
There will be gay couples it will exist. It is not very nice that people who are married - who divorce in three seconds - don’t want protection for the others. The legal system should protect everyone, not just the few people who think they are above everybody else because they are married.
Karl Lagerfeld
There will never be a chanel collection without black
Karl Lagerfeld
What I hate most in life are people who are not really the peach of the day but who want to be young and sexy. You can fool nobody. There is a moment when you have to accept that somebody else is younger and fresher and hotter. Life is not a beauty contest.
Karl Lagerfeld
Yes, some people say to me you're too skinny, but never a skinny person says that to me, only people who could lose a few pounds say that.

I lost 200lb to wear suits by Hedi Slimane

I live my memoirs, I don’t have to write them down.
