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

Image
With fashion, I barely finish one collection before I must start another.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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

Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o'clock at night - it doesn't matter.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I barely finish one pre-collection before I must start on another. Sales start, but I am already elsewhere creatively. The men's show is being prepared, but we also need to think about accessories, perfumes and other items. In sum, I never stop.

I wanted to see people from different age groups, body shapes and personalities wearing Lanvin That is what Lanvin is all about and represents - we dont only do clothes for 20-year-old girls. I love to see mature women wearing Lanvin as well. I love wrinkles, I love grey hair.

I am very much a people person.

When a woman's clothes are in harmony with her emotions, she shines from within.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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
Image
I don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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.

My dream is to be a doctor. I'm almost working in a laboratory, because I'm trying new techniques, new directions and fabrics, new weaving.
Alber Elbaz
Image
What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.
Alber Elbaz
Image
It was not the story of design or clothes, it was the fantasy of women that made me want to work in fashion.
