More quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
I am not a second option person. It is that or nothing. If it is not the way I see it I prefer not to see it.
Karl Lagerfeld
You cannot fight against it. There's a price you have to pay for fame, and people who don't want to pay that price can get in trouble. I accepted the idea of celebrity because of a French expression: 'You cannot have the butter and the money for the butter.'
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
Fashion is what people wear not only what you see on the Runway
Karl Lagerfeld
Stuff your brain with knowledge.
Karl Lagerfeld
Music gives color to the air of the moment.
Karl Lagerfeld
What I like about music is the songs you can remember the lines of in a single second.
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
You have to like the present if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future.
Karl Lagerfeld
As a child I wanted to be a grown-up. I wanted to know everything - not that I like to talk about it. I hate intellectual conversation with intellectuals because I only care about my opinion.
Karl Lagerfeld
With expensive fashion, the inside should be as perfect as the outside.
Karl Lagerfeld
You come first, the clothes later. Reinvent new combinations of what you already own. Be creative.
Karl Lagerfeld
Those social networks, there's something sad about them. Is it because they don't have enough knowledge about friends and people? I don't understand it. It's like a talkative mirror where people talk to themselves. And what I hate most in life is selfies.
Karl Lagerfeld
Things have to be beautifully made, even if they are full of fun, fantasy and futility
Karl Lagerfeld
The couture is what a certain kind of clientele wears. But it's amusing to do because you do it piece by piece. It's another concept. It's much more work.
Karl Lagerfeld
I try not to be sentimental and obsessive about possessions. I love collecting, but I hate owning.
Karl Lagerfeld
Life should be larger than life. Size is important to escape normalization.
Karl Lagerfeld
I don’t do meetings. At Chanel, there are no meetings. At Chanel, we do what we want, whenever we want and it works. And Fendi is the same.
Karl Lagerfeld
The importance of logo into today's fashion is un! be! Lievable!
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.
