I like first class, but I don't like first class people - I prefer the people in coach. I like fine restaurants, but prefer the taste of McDonalds. I like to be perfect, but I don't like perfection - I think it's dangerous. There is nothing after perfection. I know, I am a walking contradiction.

I created the peplum so you can eat in it. You can have a dessert, you can have another sandwich.

Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.

If I wasn't a designer I would love to be a doctor. That is my fantasy, my dream. A doctor will give you a tablet if you have a headache and I will give you a dress and we both make you feel good.

Everybody's talking about the new democratic world and whether high fashion is relevant. But without high there is no low. I don't like to intellectualize. I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

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.

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.

For me, Lancome was more than just a brand. There was something very nostalgic about the name, about the whole story.

Making them feel gorgeous and comfortable is my way of making women's lives easier.

I think fashion is about longevity and doing your work. It isn't about winning or losing. It's about process, keeping it going.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.

I'm not going into the cool club. It's not my address.

I don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.

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?

I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

What is beautiful for you may not be beautiful to someone else. Or whatever is beautiful here may not be beautiful there and what is sometimes beautiful today is not necessarily beautiful tomorrow. Perhaps this is the story of fashion and what makes it move forward, the fact that there is no decision whatsoever with what’s wrong.

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
