Designer: Alber Elbaz


Alber Elbaz - Designer Lanvin
"[What we] are trying to do here is bring the minimalism of today and the maximalism of yesterday, and create tension"

The epitome of Ageless-Classic-Chic. Alber uses the finest in material and color to construct his garments that just seem to always lay perfect on a lady's body. His work is timeless and adds life to a season without creating a time constrained trend. It has been said that his classic approach was of some guidance from G.Beene, where he first started. Personally I think Alber Elbaz is amongst the best at RTW/W. Props to a resident of Chicville.
