Alber Elbaz Describes Exactly Why We Love Clothes — It's rare to find someone as genuinely kind, talented, and sensible in the fashion industry as Alber Elbaz. Though Lanvin's aesthetic might not be for every woman, we think that his ethos behind the brand is: "I love creating clothes for women, any women, aged 20 or 80, large or small…I'm not interested in creating dresses that make men fall in love with the lady wearing them. I prefer to empower women with their own love. I want to make women happy, make them shine from within, so their clothes are eclipsed by their personality. I want to see beautiful women, not beautiful clothes." Amen, Alber!
