Designer DNA. Marc Jacobs. Volume 1, Episode 10

Description

"Designers are characterized by certain trademarks that remain consistent throughout their careers, trademarks that are at the very core of their "design DNA." In this episode, we explore the signature style of Marc Jacobs. He appears to nonchalantly preside over a coveted domain that includes everything from a high-end signature line, it's sister label -- Marc by Marc Jacobs, menswear, fragrances to must-have accessories. Since his immediate firing from Perry Ellis after the showing of his notorious Spring / Summer 1993 Grunge Collection, Marc Jacobs has kept the fashion industry riveted for over two decades. The native New Yorker always brings a fearless approach to design. Jacobs provocatively incorporates retro references, his interpretation on classicism, and a potent color palette. Most importantly, a key signature of Jacobs is his ability to surprise us season after season -- making him one of American's most influential designers."--Publisher website.
