The Story Of Fashion By Alber Elbaz

Extracted from a WWD article, of Alber Elbaz speaking at UNESCO.

Elbaz:

"I’m here to tell the story of fashion..."

On fashion being a marathon and designers:

“work very hard, but we lose no calories, unfortunately.”

On likening fashion to cooking:

“If we cut the butter, we can make it better.”

On craft skills being in peril, & the superficial culture the Internet engenders:

“Do you know anyone who wants to be a seamstress? Do you know anyone who wants to be a tailor? I don’t, either. But I do know many people who want to be models, and not only models, but supermodels. This is the game today: Be famous, and do it really, really fast.”

On how his collection looks on a computer screen:

“Whatever looks good in the picture doesn’t always look good in real life,”

The End.

“In the music industry, you can have a lifetime career with one great album,... We’re only as good as our next collection — in other words, no credibility at all.”

Quote | Henri Matisse

 

Currently reading this bio of Henri Matisse, and came across this quote. Now, if you're an artist you'll hopefully appreciate it, and more hopefully comprehend it. If you don't, then you need to lay your tool down and figure this out. It's a simple thought, that many go astray of.
