Marc Jacobs
has a touch and an inborn taste to design clothes that people want to wear. This
is the true feature of the talented designer, you know. A satchel or a shoe
it's always demanded by people, and he know how and when present his models.
From grunge to prom, from private jet to Tokyo
nightclub, he launches garments that suits all occasions.
He would
stroll along the streets watching people and observing their tastes and
preferences and at nights he would visit night clubs to trace the tastes of
clubbers. And he really succeeded in his observations since he always makes
right conclusions. Marc Jacobs is the trendy genius, the one who invented fashion-grunge
that presented pumps and tunics, who recommended wearing romantic dresses with
rough army boots and he is the person who rehabilitated the fame of Louis
Vuitton. The path to the fame was not short, and was not distinguished with
troubles, though. Marc Jacobs prepared
his first collection of hand-made knitted sweaters when he was a schoolboy, and
the collection won the first award to him. When he graduated from the Parsons
School of Design, he was immediately employed by the Ruben Thomas Inc. Company.
And at the same time the new brand
appears called Marc Jacobs for which the designer works out collections across
with employment on the key work throughout his entire career and till now. When
Marc was invited to work for the reputed Perry Ellis Company, he encountered
wider perspectives and challenges than ever. He worked hard to grow to the
office of the Creative Director and developed the range of booming and thriving
collections. Working of the traditional colors and silhouettes practiced widely
by Perry Ellis Company, Marc created new collections that gave people the chance
to see the accustomed style of the Company in the new manner and way.
His
workload includes Marc Jacobs, Marc by Marc and Louis Vuitton, which is the
magnificent selection of back to back collections though he still manages to
build a world class modern art collection and dress in pigeon costumes at his
annual fancy dress party.
The way
Marc Jacobs is inspired to show ideas in collection is different from time to
time. Marc draws inspiration when interpreting classic style, from the Scotch
chess to double-breast suits. His ideas are reflected in Perry Ellis Collections
where the management appreciated that Marc respects the traditions and designer
reticence. Perry Ellis has always insisted on keeping to traditions when
creating collections, while Marc Jacobs brand (I bet you know who established
the brand) made it easy to create and implement even too adventurous and dubious
ideas.
The fashion
boom happened in 1993 when Marc Jacobs presented his legendary collection. The
idea seemed to weird at first, though people accustomed to it, when he proposed
to wear small dresses with flower prints with heavy army boots, stretched
sweaters, washed off blouses and the garments that resembled second-hand things
but actually crying of their stylish trend. Grunge by Marc was accepted and
perceived by the critics and the public more than with delight, while he was
immediately dismissed from the conservative Perry Ellis with old traditions.
The
designer now works for the brand Marc Jacobs and gradually transforms his rebellious
spirit into the unique chic of megalopolis. The wear he creates is for bohemian
bourgeoisie that combines the flourishing career with self-development,
creative work and free life style. He makes things for the new race of megalopolises
who grow to the point of intersection of hippy and yappy subcultures. Marc Jacobs
becomes quieter in his expressions, and he presents collections that seized the
world, and thus, Marc Jacobs strolls in the streets and seen in offices.
These sea
changes could not just been neglected by the brand with 150 year old history.
The Board Chairman of LVMH Bernard Arnault sent an invitation to Marc Jacobs to
hold the vacancy of the creative director of Louis Vuitton House. As typical to
him, as well as for Perry Ellis, Marc did not show off and worked modestly at
his position. Soon after he differently interpreted Louis Vuitton brand and it
was beneficial to him only. Presently classic handbags and kerchiefs by Louis
Vuitton are decorated with luminous graffiti, yet, the latest commercial
involves Marc himself where the public can see him fully naked hiding behind a
mere bag.
As reported
by Marc just before his photo session his «idea was to take the very symbolic
things and turn upside down» and all the fashion magazines published this
phrase immediately. He managed to attract more new customers to the old Louis
Vuitton House and raise the House profits to heavens.
Every
season Marc Jacobs shocks and strikes the public with his new collections
working for two great Houses showing no fatigue, deficit in fresh ideas and
exhaust. The style by Marc Jacobs is hard to confuse with others, even when he
proposes to wear garments from 30s after the rebellious 70s time. His every collection
comprises some impudence along with new and fresh ideas.
He is acknowledged
as the most inspired guru of fashion industry and this is really true. He is
full of enthusiasm, ideas that are enough for several seasons. And he is
talented enough to be able to turn the fashion upside down and back again and
break the actual trends of the season people accustomed to. This is Marc Jacob,
he goes to confront with the fashion but it still loves him. When military is
in fashion, he proposes dandy style, when women are full of romantic ideas, he
offers army boots to compliment their image. And the image works, you know.
