THE WORLD ACCORDING TO KARL
Love him or hate him, fashion supremo Karl Lagerfeld is a modern master of the witty one liner. Hugely talented, complete workaholic, cultivated, unpredictable, provocative, sometimes shocking, Monsieur Lagerfeld always speaks his mind. In a world of political correctness, Karl Lagerfeld, maestro of fashion is famously outspoken. His quotes are always impossible to ignore: his surprising statements often wise, quirky and always entertaining. Karl will say what he thinks, mindless of the feathers he will ruffle and above all Karl does not do politically correctness! This excellent compilation of quotations pays homage to one of the most prolific and talented master of the fashion world.
In this book created with his full approval, Lagerfeld expresses his views on fashion, women, love, and life’s ups and downs, art. This collection of Lagerfeld’s maxims is designed not just for fashionistas or style conscious but for all as we negotiate the trickiest curves of modern life. I was given the book “The World According To Karl” this Christmas and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is beautifully produced and designed.
It was compiled by Patrick Mauries, writer and publisher of many titles on fashion and design, including Jewellery by Chanel, also published by Thames & Hudson and Jean-Christophe Napias, author, translator and editor of books on dandies, dance music and style culture.
