More quotes by Alber Elbaz
I have a problem to do a collection that is a secondary line. I mean, you don’t want to be the stepsister. You want to be Cinderella. Show me one girl who wants to be the stepsister.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now
Alber Elbaz
Everyone wants to be young and skinny. This is awful. Curves are marvelous. Wrinkles are hypnotizing. Why not just be happy with who you are?
Alber Elbaz
I don't think that you can write music if you don't know how to play an instrument. You have to know the basics, then you can go forward.
Alber Elbaz
With fashion, I barely finish one collection before I must start another.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is like a fruit, you couldn't eat it a day before and you can't eat it a day after it's just about today
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about buying a second skin. Fashion is about having a fantasy.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not always about what's new, it's also about what's good. And I think if you need to see what's good, you have to be there.
Alber Elbaz
I'm not a plastic surgeon, and I cannot change the DNA of a person, but when I see a woman try on my clothes and she feels beautiful, I know I am doing my job.
Alber Elbaz
I am very sensitive to the smells and sensations that are part of perfumes because they remind me of things: moments from the past, people, events.
Alber Elbaz
I'd rather be relevant than cool.
Alber Elbaz
In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
Alber Elbaz
For me, Lancome was more than just a brand. There was something very nostalgic about the name, about the whole story.
Alber Elbaz
I think that we are in a very strange time, when everybody is thinking about what is going to happen, and everybody is kind of cleaning house a little bit. In the fashion world, we are doing something similar. We are taking the fake out and being a little bit more real and simple.
Alber Elbaz
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
Alber Elbaz
Elegant is not what you wear, and it's not about how you wear it, but it's more about who you are.
Alber Elbaz
Why not touch things that we hate and turn them upside down and inside out?
Alber Elbaz
I like the dream, like fantasy dresses. Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o’clock at night, it doesn’t matter. I think it is also important for me to make it pragmatic and practical and wearable. I always say, 'If you can’t eat it, it’s not food, and if you can’t wear it, it’s not fashion, it is something else.'
Alber Elbaz
Style is the only thing you can't buy. It's not in a shopping bag, a label, or a price tag. It's something reflected from our soul to the outside world. An emotion.
Alber Elbaz
I always say that women are very strong and men are powerful. But beauty gives you both strength and power. I never think of it. It's just one of those natural things. It's the only thing I know how to do.
