It’s not a secret: we have a soft spot for Alber Elbaz and his team. But how can we not? He says that he starts out every morning “by reading the Daily online.” And just a few hours agom, he charmed us again at Lanvin’s Pre-Fall presentation, held at Milk Studios. Here are our favorite quotable moments  from the Knight of the Bow Tie:
“Sometimes I feel like Carrie from Sex and the City. I sit in front of my computer and ask myself, ‘Does the daytime have to be boring and grey?’”
“What’s the difference between a dream and a fantasy? Well, you have to sleep to dream, and to fantasize you have to be awake and sober. So I prefer a fantasy!”
“I’m like a contestant of Project Runway in this presentation format.”

  • “My favorite thing about New York is Chinese room service in my hotel room. I love it.  There’s nothing better when you leave for work at 9 a.m. and come back at 10:30 p.m.. That late at night, I don’t want to sit and eat any fancy hors d’oeuvres. I just want to sit by my television, eat my Chinese food, and sleep.” –Alber Elbaz, at his pre-fall presentation yesterday at Milk Studios.
