I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.
Alber Elbaz

If I wasn't a designer I would love to be a doctor. That is my fantasy, my dream. A doctor will give you a tablet if you have a headache and I will give you a dress and we both make you feel good.

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

I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

The big room or big suite doesn't mean a lot to me. It is what the people do or don't do that matters.

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