I don’t take drugs because if I did I’d love them–I’d be a junkie. And because I’m Jewish, I’d probably be a dealer, too.

More quotes by 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
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
If you take something out of the freezer, it's cold, but what happens when it melts? It's a cool party, a cool person, a cool collection. What does that mean? I'm more interested in things that are uncool, things that have a certain individuality, a certain soul, a certain longevity, emotion, fragility.
Alber Elbaz
All I want to do is make people beautiful.
Alber Elbaz
Some days I feel like a piano: kind of short, always in black & white, always expected to produce music.
Alber Elbaz
With fashion, I barely finish one collection before I must start another.
Alber Elbaz
I certainly can't complain. I work six days a week, if not seven, and eighteen hours out of twenty-four - fortunately, with a great deal of pleasure. Why? Because I only do something if I want to do it I need to feel a desire, to find pleasure in moving forward, creating, moving, inventing.
Alber Elbaz
I spend my time backstage at the Lanvin shows, and when I come out at the end, all I see are people's eyes.
Alber Elbaz
All the young people in fashion worship the people who have been around a long time. I think it is about keeping something going through the generations. Take my work: Just because I'm not 20 anymore doesn't mean that people don't appreciate what I do.
Alber Elbaz
I love women. I get along with women more than men, and I have more women friends.
Alber Elbaz
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
Fashion is instinctive and sensual. Learn to love what you wear. It should feel like eating chocolates...wi thout the calories
Alber Elbaz
I love to travel inside my head, take journeys toward the unknown, meet new people, dream.
Alber Elbaz
I am not interested in perfection, and neither are the women who wear my clothes.
Alber Elbaz
How do you stand out as a fashion ad campaign? By using people off the street it does generate buzz.
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 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
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
Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now
Alber Elbaz
What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.
