A little Marc Jacobs

" I love fashion. Thats why I do it. No one's forcing me to do this. And nobody forces anyone to buy it. It's a real love affair."

There are few designers that are able to connect the art of the runway with ready to wear pieces, but Marc Jacobs has the rare ability to do so.

Like McQueen, he has faced his demons, yet continues to live.  Marc's battle with addiction was no secret, and it is thrilling to see his work in this new freedom he is experiencing. 

 It is certain his better days are ahead of him.

In 1997 Marc joined LV, and since then has created a "house" that has reinvented the company completely.  No longer do we just think of handbags when it comes to LV, but they are altogether a new house because of Marc's vision.

"Fashion isn't a necessity. It pulls at your heart. It's a whim. 

You don't need it. You want it."

Marc truly seems to have a relationship with his work & curiosity that is never satisfied.  You see that in each collection and know for certain there is more to come.

With Marc there is a true sense of playfulness, flirtation, and beauty. Each piece tells a story of a girl, and that is why I love his work. He is connected with the story, its' simplicity, and women's desire to feel pretty. 

Besos,
