Marc Jacobs Scales Back On Fall RTW 2009 Show
Fashion Week: NYC
NY: 16Feb09- While we normally make an effort not to write about over exposed fashion designers, Marc Jacobs is our absolute favorite (even though he went to our rival school of Parsons NY). But we love underdogs and people who shun the fakeness that consumes the industry - that of which Marc is not - and he loves Lil Kim! In an effort to save a few extra coins and expenditures, this year MJ decided to not only scale back the guest list but nix the entertainment fiasco's that besieges most shows. Who needs Anna Wintor, Kanye and fluff when your Marc Jacobs bitch! Marc brought the ode to New York City and the 80's back in one flash of a show and we loved every minute of it. Although we still wouldn't be caught dead in Marc's Fall pink acid washed jeans (don't quote us either), we loved the bustiers and coats. Having lived in NY ourselves and headed back, Virtual Stylist knows all too well just how dark NYC can be, especially in the Fall. Mr. Jacobs lit it up with hints of neon colors everywhere - think Willy Wear circa 1986. Those in tune with fashion know exactly what we're talking about. VS gives MJ's Ready To Wear Fall 2009 - two thumbs way up! We would give more, but it's a recsession for god's sake - but shop on!
