My dream is to be a doctor. I'm almost working in a laboratory, because I'm trying new techniques, new directions and fabrics, new weaving.

I don't like perfection - I think it's dangerous. There is nothing after perfection.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
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.
Alber Elbaz
Image
In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Almost every collection I do has 200 different references. I don't have two of the same coat, two of the same dress. I have it in one color, in one fabric. I've tried to adapt the culture of couture, and the know-how and the heritage, but I try to update it.

When a woman's clothes are in harmony with her emotions, she shines from within.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Sometimes you don't really need armor to feel protected. Sometimes maybe you need just a chiffon dress to hug you.
Alber Elbaz
Image
With fashion, I barely finish one collection before I must start another.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I like having the freedom to dress as I desire.

Image
I want to know where is that committee in Switzerland that sits to decide what is in and what is out. I don't listen to the formula makers. I think maybe I have a selective hearing disorder.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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 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
Image
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 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.
Alber Elbaz

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.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I was a fat child I was asthmatic. No wonder I'm a hypochondriac.
Alber Elbaz
Image
It was not the story of design or clothes, it was the fantasy of women that made me want to work in fashion.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Pure, intense emotions. It's not about design. It's about feelings.
Alber Elbaz

All I want is beautiful. I mean, I like grey hair, I love wrinkles. But this is me.
