Touch of Excellence

This morning, I read The Future of Fashion, Part Six: Alber Elbaz on Style.com. This is a series by Dirk Standen where he gathers the perspectives of different journalists, designers, and insiders about the ever changing economic and technological changes in the fashion industry as we enter this new decade. 


I have admired Elbaz's work at Lanvin for some time now. Lanvin is certainly one of the labels I look forward to every season. But I must also say I find Elbaz to be just a very cool guy. I love hearing him speak, he's very gentle, kind, and thoughtful in his message, and he seems to just have a lovely spirit. When he comes out to take his bow at the end of a show, everyone cheers and smiles, which to me, is a testament to his personality.
