More quotes by 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
I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.
Alber Elbaz
I am very much a people person. If I am in a beautiful place but I don't like the people, I am miserable.
Alber Elbaz
When I was either 7 or 8 years old, I did a sketch every day of my teacher and what she wore. At the end of the year, I gave her the sketchbook. For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams.
Alber Elbaz
Elegant is not what you wear, and it's not about how you wear it, but it's more about who you are.
Alber Elbaz
When I'm traveling the world, I don't ever look anymore at the geography - just enough to catch galleries and paintings.
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
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
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.
Alber Elbaz
All I want is beautiful. I mean, I like grey hair, I love wrinkles. But this is me.
Alber Elbaz
In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
Alber Elbaz
I don't think that you can write music if you don't know how to play an instrument. You have to know the basics, then you can go forward.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now
Alber Elbaz
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
What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.
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
If I were a buyer today in one of the American department stores, I would go with extremes-the most beautiful, the more expensive, the more eccentric. I would take risks. The worst thing would be to buy only the little black dress. You know why? Because everyone has it already. I would go with a purple dress, something different
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
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
Some days I feel like a piano: kind of short, always in black & white, always expected to produce music.
