Lagerfeld: Tracksuits are dangerous

Karl Lagerfeld despises tracksuits and considers them dangerous. He thinks that their problem is that they hide weight.

Comfortable clothes, especially tracksuits, offend the tastes of the famous fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. He sincerely despises such clothes and considers them very dangerous.

- I never wear tracksuits. Such things are dangerous because of the elastic band at the waist. They stretch conveniently so that you have no clue if you gained any weight. Besides, I hate being so relaxed. I always look exactly as you see me - said the 76-year-old Lagerfeld.

Karl Lagerfeld has been the chief designer of the French fashion house Chanel, and despite his age, seems to have no intention of retiring.

- Retirement is certainly not one of the topics I like to talk about. Why should I? I still have so many projects. Chanel will need clothes even when I am 89. World can count on me for a long time - concluded this fashion veteran.
