"[Karl Lagerfeld] lives out his own legend in every way he can think of, with every instinct he has, and in a world of stolid conventions, he has the courage to perpetuate a vision of something wonderful."--Andrew O'Hagan, T: The New York Times Style Magazine
"Lagerfeld has maintained his preëminence for five decades, and without any visible sign of strain."--John Colapinto, New Yorker
"Because fashion is about today. You can take an idea from the past, but, if you do it the way it was, no one wants it."--Karl Lagerfeld
