Karl Lagerfeld, the Renaissance Man (continues)

with 5 Euro coin he designed
on Coco's 125th anniversary


“I like today and perhaps a little future still, but the past is really something I’m not interested in. So, as far as I am concerned, I like only the past of things and people I don’t know. When I know, I don’t care because I knew how it was.” KL



Karl at home:
“We need houses as we need clothes, architecture stimulates fashion. It’s like hunger and thirst-you need them both.” KL
“Books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. I am the happy victim of books.” KL
“With every book you buy, you should buy the time to read it.” KL
“Change is the healthiest way to survive.” KL
“Apparently, I am very scary. But if you get to know me, you see I am very nice. Happily, I don’t look like I am.” KL
