More quotes by Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about before, it’s not about after, it’s about now
Alber Elbaz
The nature of fashion is family. You see that at almost every house, it was owned first by a family. It wasn't owned by a bank.
Alber Elbaz
I love to see old women. I love wrinkles. I love gray hair.
Alber Elbaz
I think that if you want to pass emotion, you have to write a letter. Emotions do not pass in SMS or in e-mail.
Alber Elbaz
Fashion is not about buying a second skin. Fashion is about having a fantasy.
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
All I want to do is make people beautiful.
Alber Elbaz
I do sport at the gym a few times a week, but I hate it. Work is my only remedy. I feel so twisted and horrible in the morning, but then I go to the office and I start feeling better. Work is my Tylenol. Extra-strength.
Alber Elbaz
For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams. In my little room at home, I felt that I was somewhere else. In Paris, for instance.
Alber Elbaz
I'm not a plastic surgeon, and I cannot change the DNA of a person, but when I see a woman try on my clothes and she feels beautiful, I know I am doing my job.
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
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 am not interested in perfection, and neither are the women who wear my clothes.
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
If you change a woman's look, you change her persona.
Alber Elbaz
Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o'clock at night - it doesn't matter.
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
I like having the freedom to dress as I desire.
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 love to travel inside my head, take journeys toward the unknown, meet new people, dream.
Alber Elbaz
