Karl et Choupette Lagerfeld

Fashion's latest It couple:  Karl and Choupette - source: Fashionista.com

The man.  The mystery.  The macho pants.  Some say his glasses hide the fact that he has no eyes.  Some say that his perfect proportions should not even be humanly possible.  Some even claim that he sleeps hanging from the eavestroughs of his manse, clutching his sweet Choupette for warmth (follow her on twitter here) while he dreams up his latest collections. The white of his hair?  Crushed up Chanel pearls.  His black pants? Extinct German black panther pelts.  As for his lips?  Legend has it that a kiss from the Kaiser will shrink your thighs by at least 2 inches.  Naturellement.

The only thing better than a Chanel suit? A quote from the Karl himself, of course. (source: The Observer)

On his weight: "Yes, some people say to me you're too skinny, but never a skinny person says that to me, only people who could lose a few pounds say that." 

On the royals: "Kate Middleton has a nice silhouette. I like that kind of woman, I like romantic beauties. On the other hand, the sister struggles. I don't like the sister's face. She should only show her back." 

On the boudoir: "I'm rather pro-prostitution.  I admire people who do it. It can't be much fun. Thank goodness for it. People need relief or they become murderers." - Karl Lagerfeld in the documentary Lagerfeld Confidential

On supermodels: "I don't know Heidi Klum. She was never known in France. Claudia Schiffer also doesn't know who she is." 

On his childhood: "When I was four I asked my mother for a valet for my birthday" 

On technology: "The iPod is genius. I have 300"

On being childless: "They grow so fast, and having adult children makes you look 100 years old. I don’t want that" 

Classic.  Get a piece of Karl now at NET-A-PORTER.   I NEED (want, whatever...) that camo blouse and the sequined dress.  Yum!  Happy long weekend y'all!  May it be as sweet as Choupette.  Do you suppose he lets her eat carbs? x
