More quotes by Alber Elbaz
I love to see old women. I love wrinkles. I love gray hair.
Alber Elbaz
A fragrance is a veritable story, told and explained in scent, in notes, in impressions. It's a score based on the emotions of each instant, a captivating music of the senses.
Alber Elbaz
I'm not going into the cool club. It's not my address.
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.
Alber Elbaz
I always think, if I were an editor, and I was invited to a show, and I would have to wait for 45 minutes in the dark or in the cold or in the heat, maybe I would like to have a fresh drink or a piece of chocolate.
Alber Elbaz
I feel more and more that the most beautiful people are the ones who are comfortable with themselves.
Alber Elbaz
I don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.
Alber Elbaz

I think that because I'm overweight, [my] fantasy was lightness. So I project my fantasy to the clothes, and now all I do is light, light clothes because it's the one thing I don't have. That is why I'm too afraid to lose weight because then I might make heavy clothes.
Alber Elbaz
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.
Alber Elbaz
I do sport at the gym a few times a week, but I hate it. Work is my only remedy. I feel so twisted and horrible in the morning, but then I go to the office and I start feeling better. Work is my Tylenol. Extra-strength.
Alber Elbaz
All I want to do is make people beautiful.
Alber Elbaz
I like having the freedom to dress as I desire.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about buying a second skin. Fashion is about having a fantasy.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is like life. It needs fear and uncertainty if you are to move forward.
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
At Yves Saint Laurent, I felt like the son-in-law - like I was part of the family, but not quite. When I was fired, I felt like the widow.
Alber Elbaz
The problem with couture is not designers it's what happens when the couturier will no longer be there.
Alber Elbaz
For me, Lancome was more than just a brand. There was something very nostalgic about the name, about the whole story.
