Pippa Middleton should stop showing her face and only show her rear, insisted elderly designer Karl Lagerfeld.

The grey haired German, 78, issued the call to the sister of Duchess Kate of Cambridge, who did get the aging icon’s approval.

“Kate Middleton has a nice silhouette and she is the right girl for that boy,” said Lagerfeld. “I like that kind of woman, I like romantic beauties.

“On the other hand, her sister struggles. I don’t like the sister’s face. She should only show her back.”

Pippa Middleton shot to fame as chief bridesmaid at the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, last year.

Lagerfeld, who always wears shades in public, has a long record of sticking his claws in when making public pronouncements.

In 2010, he said poor people need pornography because they cannot afford good sex.

Meanwhile, he derided London-born star Adele as “too fat” by him and insisted supermodel Heidi Klum was “too heavy” for the catwalk.
