More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
Music gives color to the air of the moment.
Karl Lagerfeld
It’s great that in life you do something that you want to do because you like doing it and you’re not bored. I’m not bored at all. I’m even interested in lots of things, more so today than before.
Karl Lagerfeld
If you stick to something doggedly, you are off to a bad start.
Karl Lagerfeld
If there's something dangerous, sauces are dangerous for the body.
Karl Lagerfeld
Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.
Karl Lagerfeld
Elegance has nothing to do with fashion.
Karl Lagerfeld
No one wants to see curvy women.
Karl Lagerfeld
People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory.
Karl Lagerfeld
If you want respect for your past, it means that you have a problem with your present and even more with your future.
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
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
I think tattoos are horrible. It's like living in a Pucci dress full-time.
Karl Lagerfeld
A book has to be easy to open and you don't have to be a bodybuilder to lift it. I like books I can read in bed. Those big tombstones would kill me.
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
I’m very much down to earth, just not this earth.
Karl Lagerfeld
Guilty feelings about clothes are totally unnecessary. A lot of people earn their living by making clothes, so you should never feel bad.
Karl Lagerfeld
What I do Coco would have hated. The label has an image and it's up to me to update it. I do what she never did. I had to find my mark. I had to go from what Chanel was to what it should be, could be, what it had been to something else.
Karl Lagerfeld
I like to do things quickly because I'm easily bored.
Karl Lagerfeld
People who can't be alone have a problem. Loneliness is a luxury for people like me.
Karl Lagerfeld
I’m like a rock singer with one-night stands on the road. I’m here for two days in New York I leave in the morning early. I come back for Anna Wintour’s party at the Met, then again at the end of May for a prize I get from the Gordon Parks Foundation.
