We are comfortable with formulas, but the best happens when the formula doesn't work.
Alber Elbaz
Image
The whole season thing is nonsense. It's either beautiful or it isn't. That's something I really learned when I started collecting dresses.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.

In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
