Spiegel Online recently posted an interview they did with Karl Lagerfeld’s ex-employee Arnaud Maillard. In the interview, Maillard dishes about Lagerfeld’s narcissism and his new book “Merci Karl!”

Maillard on Karl Lagerfeld:

“He’s an unbelievable narcissist. He needs an eternity to get ready in the morning. He takes photos of himself at every photo shoot and puts them everywhere. He surrounds himself with a kind of royal court, nobody disagrees with him. Wherever he goes, there is Pepsi-Cola in a Baccarat crystal glass waiting for him and it gets replaced every 30 minutes. It’s like the 18th century.”

  1. YES HE IS A DIVA!! And dont we all just love him for that!
    That man is using Laprairie, 600€ creme, between his toes and i gently use it on my skin! How demode is that! I think he has the limited edition that one is 2000 or something!:/

    J’adore Uncle karl

  2. No Shit! Karl is a diva, and its okay. We expect that from him. When your a genius, your allowed to be a bitch. ie Anna Wintour.

  3. How disappointing. It makes me sad that people think that this kind of behavior is okay. Fashion is great and all. But in the end, it’s just clothes.
