Mr Jacobs, I Presume

"I love that reaction of love or hate. It’s indifference that bores me to death." - Marc Jacobsmarcjacobs.jpeg

 

That right there is your perfect introduction to Marc Jacobs, and crucial to understanding his design concepts. Of all the new wave of designers, he is most famous for his bright, edgy, grungy-ish designs. Somehow, he manages to hit the right point each time.

The first thing I always look at with a Marc Jacobs purse is the number of pockets on it… he loves his pockets, and I love him for it because it keeps all the keys/phone/make up stuff in it’s place.

Then there’s colour… material… check out the purse up there. What colour would you call that? I bet whatever you say, your friend would say different, and their friend would say something different as well. It’s so much fun, and the design is always incredibly classy — while still keeping that unique edginess.

You could be the most well groomed New Yorker in the world and carry this bag with pride… its extremely feminine and youthfully girly… and there’s almost a schoolgirl satchel element to it, which is just adorable.

Clearly Marc Jacobs is another designer who ‘gets’ women. Lovely lovely lovely.
