Quote of the Day: Karl Lagerfeld on Biographers

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, News,

Karl Lagerfeld

“Whoever has time, because I couldn’t care less.  Today nobody’s really found the real story… I don’t have too much consideration for the poor people who try to write that book... I have nothing to say. But it’s interesting that people in fact are lazy. If they worked hard they would find interesting things. Nobody finds it! So I’m in a position to say ‘#### you, you’re all lazy pigs.’ And I certainly won’t help them!”

- Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld on his would-be biographers.
