Alber Elbaz Quotes

One woman told me that every time she wears Lanvin, men fall in love with her. Another told me she wore Lanvin to face her husband's lawyer because she felt protected. If I can make men fall in love with women and if I can protect women, I think I can die peacefully.
Our clothes are not always beautiful on the hanger, but put them on, and they fit like bathing suits.
Our logo for Lanvin is a mother and a daughter. I've always said, 'It's not a lion, and it's not a horse. It's a mother and a daughter.' I find the logo very emotional.
Run away from laziness; work hard. Touch intuition and listen to the heart, not marketing directors. Dream.
Stay big in your work and small in your life.
The designers, photographers and models I work with, they are really hard-working people who are devoting their lives to fashion. They're kind of like nuns of fashion.
The nature of fashion is family.
The problem with couture is not designers; it's what happens when the couturier will no longer be there.
The worst thing that can happen is if you're stuck within a bubble and you think that is what life is all about. It's great to see other people and hear from people of different ages and opinions.

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.
We are being accused that some models are anorexic. But we as fashion designers cannot be blamed, because you know, when I talk to women around the world, rich and poor and young and old and intellectual and not, what they want to be is skinny. You ask them, 'What is your dream?' It's to be skinny. That's all they want.
When I was either 7 or 8 years old, I did a sketch every day of my teacher and what she wore. At the end of the year, I gave her the sketchbook. For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams.
When I'm traveling the world, I don't ever look anymore at the geography - just enough to catch galleries and paintings.
When you come into a house like Saint Laurent, or Chanel, or Lanvin, and you go into a place that existed before you were born and will exist after you die, it takes some time to get in, to get to people, and to get the energy of the place.
Why not touch things that we hate and turn them upside down and inside out?
Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o'clock at night - it doesn't matter.
Women try to be the best everywhere, and it's impossible. I want my clothes to give women the freedom to just be - I want them to put on my dresses and shine.
