When I'm traveling the world, I don't ever look anymore at the geography - just enough to catch galleries and paintings.

Why not touch things that we hate and turn them upside down and inside out?

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.

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.

Image
I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Everybody's talking about the new democratic world and whether high fashion is relevant. But without high there is no low. I don't like to intellectualize. I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

Fashion doesn't look good only on models, it can look good on different people of different ages and different body shapes.

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.

Image
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
Image
Pure, intense emotions. It's not about design. It's about feelings.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I don't go out to parties because I'd look terrible in pictures. My escape is television - it's like meditation to me.
Alber Elbaz
Image
For me, Lancome was more than just a brand. There was something very nostalgic about the name, about the whole story.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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
Image
I love and respect women. I work mostly with women.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I am very sensitive to the smells and sensations that are part of perfumes because they remind me of things: moments from the past, people, events.
Alber Elbaz
Image
If you change a woman's look, you change her persona.

Image
We are comfortable with formulas, but the best happens when the formula doesn't work.

Image
All I want is beautiful. I mean, I like grey hair, I love wrinkles. But this is me.
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.
