The fashion guru sat with Vice magazine to talk about his beliefs, homosexuality, sex, porn and even high-class escorts. Intrigued? Check out some of the highlights from the interview below:
On homosexuality:
“When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said—and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded— ‘It’s like hair color. It’s nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. It’s not a subject.’ This was a very healthy attitude.”
On sex:
“I admire porn… And I personally only like high-class escorts. I don’t like sleeping with people I really love. I don’t want to sleep with them because sex cannot last, but affection can last forever. I think this is healthy. And for the way the rich live, this is possible. But the other world, I think they need porn. I also think it’s much more difficult to perform in porn than to fake some emotion on the face as an actor.”
On fur:
“That’s why I always say, when people talk about not using fur, ‘Are you rich enough to make an income for the people in the north who live from hunting? What do you want them to live off of when there’s nothing else to do?’”
On not removing his sunglasses for interviews:
They’re my burka ... I had an interview once with some German journalist — some horrible, ugly woman. It was in the early days after the communists — maybe a week after — and she wore a yellow sweater that was kind of see-through. She had huge tits and a huge black bra, and she said to me, “It’s impolite; remove your glasses.” I said, “Do I ask you to remove your bra?”
