RIP the juul to Karl ya ded bitch

I know I know I know everyone was wondering when this was going to come but here it is bitches giddy up

Karl died recently at the ripe old dinosaur age of 85. Take this “85” with a grain of salt because no one actually knows how old he was. I am dead ass he didnt tell anyone how old he was probably not even the french government. We can venture to say he was closer to 90, but maybe even more. To be almost 90 years old and the head of 3 different billion dollar fashion houses is normally a huge liability but the truth is that no one could fire this dude. or his cat (who was the sole heir to Karl’s vast fortunes). Karl was king and deserved it. Heres to Karl.

You can read other shit for an intellectual writeup of Karl’s history and legacy. This site is about the dirt and the dirt is what we got today because it is finally Friday.

Karl was maybe the first alien, second to David Bowie. To prove my indisputable point read this interview he gave Haarper’s Bazaar in 2012 here. This dude took 5 baths a day. He slept for like 5 hours a day, in his 80s. He sketched for massive amounts of time a week, and thats before he was even in the office. This dude is a huge hero for someone not feeling bad about loving their job. He also has said the most batshit things ever that I love to revisit every now and then.

"What I hate is nasty, ugly people ... the worst is ugly, short men."

"I hated the company of other children. I wanted to be a grownup person, to be taken seriously. I hated the idea of childhood."

"That's the last thing I want. I hate all children."

"I hate the smell of cooking."

"Well, I hate telephones."

"I hate New Year’s Eve! I think it’s terrible."

"You know, I hate made-by-order clothes. It’s up to me to fit into them, not to buy some orthopedic stuff to get the body into."

"I never drink anything hot; I don't like hot drinks, very strange. I drink Diet Coke from the minute I get up to the minute I go to bed."

“What I hate most is flip-flops. I am physically allergic to flip-flops."

"I hate rice"

"Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost control of your life, so you bought some sweatpants."

"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."

"The iPod is genius. I have 300."

"It would have been difficult to have an ugly daughter."

"My sisters were sent away because my mother thought they were boring. I was not boring."

"The brain is a muscle, and I’m a kind of body-builder."

and the Coupdegrace "I’m very much down to earth, just not this earth."

For some actual respect, here are the final looks from his postmordem and final Chanel Show (C/O VOGUE and the other dino Anna)
