82-year-old Fashion Designer Karl Lagerfeld said this in a recent
interview with CNN. The German-born designer who moved to Paris in 1950
to take up his first job under French fashion giant Pierre Balmain and
has been at the helm of Chanel since 1983, said
“Paris by night is a
nightmare now. It is not a clichรฉ anymore. This is not the most
glamorous moment in Paris. I must say, in my whole life I never saw
Paris that gloomy. It was another world. There was no feeling of danger,
and not even a boy of 16 years old could walk in the street. Things are
changing. I have the feeling I lived in a world that no longer
exists.”
