TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND TURKISH ELEPHANTS
there are no words in any language that can describe the love i have for this man.
karl lagerfeld designs delicious chanel clothing (orgasm), but he's more than that. karl lagerfeld is a legend, a bizarre character, a person that becomes more fascinating with every story you hear. karl lagerfeld is a mixture of kim jong il, bill brasky, and a perfectly aloof gay guy working in a Gap clothing store.
enjoy these tidbits about him. embrace this man. he is everything.
- "A dress that Karl Lagerfeld designed for Chanel was pulled from the season's line. The Arab world was up in arms after the sexy black item with Arabic words embroidered across it was modeled on the runway." The problem? The words, which Lagerfeld thought derived from a love poem, were in fact from the Koran.
- "Karl has the energy of . . . what? Twenty-five thousand Turkish elephants!" says socialite Anne Slater.
- "Firemen had to stand at the door to stop people from coming in because everyone wanted to see him [Lagerfeld]," says Robert Burke. "Karl said the firemen were the best-dressed people from the whole evening!"
- An emissary from Planet Not Obsessed With Karl: Chuck Close plants his wheelchair two inches from the exit door. "I'm not very interested in fashion," says Close, surveying the crowd. He sighs. "This event is making me want to start smoking again."
- The Fendi iPod bag can carry up to 12 iPods. It is already not clear to me who would own 12 iPods. Karl Lagerfeld, who designed the iPod bag, actually now has 40 iPods. The article goes on explaining that Lagerfeld converted his 60,000 CD collection onto the 40 iPods, which are scattered around the globe in his various residences.
- Karl has also taken a liking to Chan Marshall, singer of Cat Power, whom he has flown out to several Chanel shows in Europe.

So superficial and pretentious it means nothing in the sceme of things.
that's exactly the point. he's a sketch of a real person. he's like a robot man. i can't get enough.
p.s. that post sounded like lagerfeld talking.
He shines like a robot man with all the bling and sheen in that picture.
Designers can bite my asshole
don't you guys get it!? he's like...a mockery of himself. that's why he's so amazing. it's all too much to be real.
and designers can't bite your asshole at all. they're artists too, i really believe that. why's the lead singer of a band any better or worse than lagerfeld?
Betsy Johnson is exponentially more of an artist than say, Rob Thomas.
GOD BLESS YOU KAT, PERFECT EXAMPLE.
Yes, they are artists and they are amazing. I just hate the whole pretentious fashion thing. This is coming from someone who only buys their clothes at Target because they don't want someone's name on their ass (for an extra 200 dollars). That being said, I am addicted to "What Not To Wear" and "Project Runway." I guess I like to confuse people?
