Karl Lagerfeld is certainly not one to mince his words, and now he’s unveiled his thoughts on some of fashion’s leading ladies.
Close friend and colleague Cara Delevingne received plenty of applause as Karl referred to her as the Charlie Chaplin of the fashion industry.
He told the Sunday Times: “She's a character. She's the Charlie Chaplin of the fashion world. "She is kind of genius, like a character out of a silent movie. I would see her better in a silent movie than a talkie because she over-accents the movement. Girls admire her like they used to Kate Moss. They all want to be as free as her."
And it’s not only Cara he’s speaking of, he said Kate Moss “She's the free girl of our times. And she was not living on Vichy water all her life."
He also said of Victoria Beckham: “She can look cold, but she is not, she's cheerful."
And finally, his verdict on the Queen: “Nobody does the job better than she does. She is never ridiculous, she is flawless. For this job, in our day, she is perfect. She's not supposed to be a fashion icon who is changing fashion. The Duchess of Cambridge can do that. Kate is chic in a classic way, but sometimes, with her Philip Treacy hats, Camilla is wilder. I know who people who know her. Apparently, she's full of wit and spirit."
