Karl Lagerfeld's quick wit and silver tongue are as notorious as Chanel's quilted handbag. This book is a cornucopia of his Karlisms cultivated, unpredictable, provocative, sometimes shocking, but always impossible to ignore. Karl Lagerfeld is a modern master of couture. While simultaneously running Chanel, Fendi, and his own eponymous fashion house, he has consistently re-invented trends on the catwalk and in the street for half a century. His wise, surprising statements pop up like offbeat news flashes and are regularly seized upon by fashionistas, acolytes, and sages the world over. Here, in his own deadpan words, are his exacting opinions on everything-from fashion, style, women, and Chanel to fame, life, and books. This is the ultimate repertoire of wit and wisdom from fashion's sharpest pin. "I only know how to play one role me." "Think pink. But don't wear it." "I like everything to be washable, myself included." "Change is the healthiest way to survive." "I don't recommend myself as a guest." "There is one thing I love on earth to learn."

"This book is only quotes by Karl. I for some reason thought it was going to be a bit more like a biography. I guess the product description wasn't all that clear. Either way Karl's quotes are funny and interesting and I enjoyed the book overall, for the 30 minutes it took me to read it cover to cover. I just thought it was going to contain a little more information about him."

The World According to Karl Patrick Mauries JeanChristophe Napias Books Reviews
- If you are a Karl Lagerfeld fan - as I am and you love his confidence and sometimes snarky comments you will Love this book. It is a book of quotes by the designer - on life, fashion etc. no stories just one to 2 sentence quotes. Lots of laughs if you love him and understand his humor.
- The book arrived quickly and in perfect condition.
This is a delightful book which shows, at the same time, so much and so little of the iconic Karl Lagerfeld. Wit and wisdom, sassy and deliberate, refreshing and confident; he said he would never write an autobiography...this is quite acceptable in its place. I would have liked to have known/met the man (RIP, Sir), I was late in coming to know his styling and fashion vision; however I am making up for lost time now... - This book is only quotes by Karl. I for some reason thought it was going to be a bit more like a biography. I guess the product description wasn't all that clear. Either way Karl's quotes are funny and interesting and I enjoyed the book overall, for the 30 minutes it took me to read it cover to cover. I just thought it was going to contain a little more information about him.
- The smell of the pages of this book are what make it truly unique and stand apart; of course the content is king because duuuh! Is Karl after all; but now that he's gone I have this idea that the Anel of the book itself was on purpose. Everybody who loves the Kaiser should have it on their library
- Lagerfeld. There's hardly anything to say. He's pithy and brilliant and his sense of the world, it's beauty, that which is vacuous ... highly entertaining and realistic. Wickedly on point.
- My husband, who is the fashion guru, has enjoyed this book immensely! The man who rarely comments on things that I give him has been raving about this book!
- An inspiration and genius who gave beauty and spirit to life.
This book is a must .His humor and wit mask a heart that the
world needs desperately. - My wife loves this, so excited to get this for her birthday. Thanks again, fast shipping and in perfect condition.
