Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld says that young designers have ego problems.

"Most of the designers, especially the young ones, have ego problems. I couldn't care less. The label is the label and I try what I can do," femalefirst.co.uk quoted the 81-year-old as saying.

"If you're not detached you mess everything up. You have to be detached. When I do the shoes I don't think about anything else...

"If I feel like I am on the wrong track, or they do not see things the way I see them, then I forget about it. I lose interest. It can be my name; it can be everything. I don't care about my name," he added.
