Diane Kruger loves Lagerfeld

Diane Kruger thinks of Karl Lagerfeld as her "stepfather".

The stunning actress has a very close relationship with the Chanel designer and says she loves working with him.

She told vogue.com: "He is like a stepfather to me. We're very close- we just get on so well. He is a very curious person, he's very interested in people in general. I've known him since I was 16-years-old, ever since I first started to model and he has always been so kind. We go way back. People have said I am his muse but I don't think I'd call myself that. It's not how I think of our relationship. That's big. It's hard to describe Karl, he really is one of a kind."

The 33-year-old beauty loves Karl's designs for Chanel because they are so classic.

She said: "What's not to love about Chanel? It's timeless, it's chic. I don't know many people that don't like it. I love it."

While she is a devoted Chanel fan, Diane is also an admirer of Calvin Klein and was recently announced as the new face of the fashion house's latest fragrance, Beauty.
