Karl Lagerfeld: The designer legend was never embarrassed by a spell
Fashion czar Karl Lagerfeld died on Tuesday at the age of 85 years. In addition to his grandiose fashion career, some of his provocative sayings are unforgettable. These related to the society, the fashion or simply on Lagerfeld itself - there were no limits to his snappy wording.
