About

Marc Jacobs, born on April 9^th, 1963 in New York is an American fashion designer known for his very non-traditional and outstanding designs. From an early age Marc had fancied fashion world since he grew up in an artistic family – his grandfather was a scriptwriter in the “Metro Goldwyn Mayer”, and his parents, agents in the largest theatrical agency owned by his uncle. When he was only seven years old, Marc’s world crashed with the death of his father and many failed relationships and marriages his mother had following the death of her husband. He soon moved in with his paternal grandparents and the greatest influence over his interest in fashion has his grandmother. Soon after graduating from the prestigious design school “Parsons” in New York, Marc was assigned a chief designer position of Perry Ellis’s woman’s line. While working here, Marc launched his first collection in 1986 and became a hit overnight. A year after leaving Perry Ellis in 1993, Marc opened his own company and soon his first store. In 1997 he was appointed a chief designer for a luxury brand, Louis Vuitton where he stills contributes with his innovative, classic yet rebellious style. Keywords of Marc’s work are probably: innovation, sophistication, courage, adaptability, diversity, brilliance and provocation. This is why his line “Marc by Marc Jacobs” and all his designs are among favorite among women worldwide

Marc Jacobs is simply a fashion chameleon. He can design a whole collection of grunge and hippie clothing for his line “Marc by Marc Jacobs” and at the same time be a creative designer in luxury empire “Louis Vuitton”. Provocation is the foundation to his creations, regardless of whether it is in a form of challenging inscriptions, spectacular prints, shoes with or without heels. Praised by many and criticized by some, it is important that no one remains indifferent to his design decisions.

Clothing – Marc Jacobs’ clothing is always different, adversarial, going from one extreme to the other and so are women who wear them. He once said: “I do not think that clothes can be sexy. I find people sexy. Individuality can be fascinating and sexy, she seduces and attracts.” And this is true for all of his designs.

Marc Jacobs perfume – In 2001 the fashion house Marc Jacobs launched its first perfume “Marc Jacobs Perfume” inspired by gardenias in water. The luxurious scent that is sensual and comfortable at the same time became an instant hit. Soon followed Daisy, Ladybug, Bang and others and all are being as popular as his first fragrance.
