More quotes by 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
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
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.
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
I love women. I get along with women more than men, and I have more women friends.
Alber Elbaz
What I love in fashion is to tell a story through a creation.
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
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.
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
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
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
Alber Elbaz
If it’s not edible, it’s not food. If it’s not wearable, it’s not fashion.
Alber Elbaz
I need to feel a desire, to find pleasure in moving forward, creating, inventing. The day I cease to learn, I must stop.
Alber Elbaz
To be a fashion critic is easy because you just say, 'I love it, I hate it,' but life is more than love and hate.
Alber Elbaz
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.
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
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 don't want to see a dress with a woman. I just want to see a woman, with a beautiful dress.
Alber Elbaz
Many, many times I find that whatever is looking good on the screen doesn't always look or feel good on the body. So who do we design for - do we design for the screen, or do we design for women?
Alber Elbaz
In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
