Image
All I want is beautiful. I mean, I like grey hair, I love wrinkles. But this is me.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I barely finish one pre-collection before I must start on another. Sales start, but I am already elsewhere creatively. The men's show is being prepared, but we also need to think about accessories, perfumes and other items. In sum, I never stop.

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
Image
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.

Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now

It was not the story of design or clothes, it was the fantasy of women that made me want to work in fashion.

Image
We are comfortable with formulas, but the best happens when the formula doesn't work.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I don't think you can be a designer if you don't care.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Run away from laziness work hard. Touch intuition and listen to the heart, not marketing directors. Dream.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I don't go out to parties because I'd look terrible in pictures. My escape is television - it's like meditation to me.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I adore women, and the one thing I want to do more than anything is to see a transformation of personality when someone puts on one of my dresses.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.

Image
In fashion, we have a reputation for being such a façade, fake people, but none of the fashion people who I know are fake.
Alber Elbaz
Image
After every show, I say to Hania [Destelle, a friend], ‘They hated it.’

Image
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?
