I am very much a people person.

Fashion is instinctive and sensual. Learn to love what you wear. It should feel like eating chocolates...wi thout the calories

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.

I don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.

Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.

The problem with couture is not designers it's what happens when the couturier will no longer be there.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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
Image
I love and respect women. I work mostly with women.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.

Making them feel gorgeous and comfortable is my way of making women's lives easier.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I love to travel inside my head, take journeys toward the unknown, meet new people, dream.
Alber Elbaz
Image
What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.

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.
