More quotes by Alber Elbaz
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
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
Fashion is like life. It needs fear and uncertainty if you are to move forward.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is about having a fantasy.
Alber Elbaz
All I want to do is make people beautiful.
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
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
There is nothing scarier than being ‘the designer of the moment,’ because the moment ends.
Alber Elbaz
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
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
Alber Elbaz
What I love in fashion is to tell a story through a creation.
Alber Elbaz
I always wear a dinner jacket. I never have this definition of what goes for the morning or the evening or what works for the weekend.
Alber Elbaz
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
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
For me, Lancome was more than just a brand. There was something very nostalgic about the name, about the whole story.
Alber Elbaz
I wanted to see people from different age groups, body shapes and personalities wearing Lanvin That is what Lanvin is all about and represents - we dont only do clothes for 20-year-old girls. I love to see mature women wearing Lanvin as well. I love wrinkles, I love grey hair.
Alber Elbaz
Run away from laziness work hard. Touch intuition and listen to the heart, not marketing directors. Dream.
Alber Elbaz
After every show, I say to Hania [Destelle, a friend], ‘They hated it.’
Alber Elbaz
Fashion doesn't look good only on models, it can look good on different people of different ages and different body shapes.
Alber Elbaz
Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o'clock at night - it doesn't matter.
