Quote

The big room or big suite doesn't mean a lot to me. It is what the people do or don't do that matters.

With fashion, I barely finish one collection before I must start another.
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.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Wear flats. You're short. It's much cooler not to pretend.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I like first class, but I don't like first class people - I prefer the people in coach. I like fine restaurants, but prefer the taste of McDonalds. I like to be perfect, but I don't like perfection - I think it's dangerous. There is nothing after perfection. I know, I am a walking contradiction.

Fashion is about having a fantasy.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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
Image
Fashion doesn't look good only on models, it can look good on different people of different ages and different body shapes.
Alber Elbaz
Image
The whole season thing is nonsense. It's either beautiful or it isn't. That's something I really learned when I started collecting dresses.

Image
In fashion we're lucky, we make dreams come true.
Alber Elbaz
Image
If it’s not edible, it’s not food. If it’s not wearable, it’s not fashion.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I am not interested in perfection, and neither are the women who wear my clothes.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I love and respect women. I work mostly with women.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I am very much a people person.
Alber Elbaz
Image
I am always trying to put myself inside: Every dress I do, I think, 'If I were a woman, would I wear it?'
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
I love to travel inside my head, take journeys toward the unknown, meet new people, dream.
Alber Elbaz
Image
Run away from laziness work hard. Touch intuition and listen to the heart, not marketing directors. Dream.
Alber Elbaz
Image
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
Image
I adore women, and the one thing I want to do more than anything is to see a transformation of personality when someone puts on one of my 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.
