Marc Jacobs

Stylistic and cultural legend Marc Jacobs has been reshaping the fashion landscape from the 1980s to the present day. Quickly noticed for his unique aesthetic, combining references to looks he has spotted in the street with an audacious grunge-inspired feel, the style of New York designer continues to impress today. Never one to do things by half (like any good NY native), he never ceases to astonish and amaze, with daring looks combining technique, elegance and shock factor. His impact on fashion is clear: he is the brains behind some of fashion’s most memorable shows, particularly those for Louis Vuitton (where he took the helm from 1997 to 2013) and his eponymous house. Known for his memorable collections as well as their remarkable staging, Marc Jacobs has always had a sense of showmanship, which he likes to use to pique the public's interest in his work. So it was only natural that the leather goods designed by The Marc Jacobs would be as bold and exciting as their creator. Shoulder straps are adorned with metal studs, while bandana prints and patchwork denim are featured on classic Tote bags. He reinterprets his signature bags with each new season, updating them according to his collections' inspirations and themes. So don't worry, you're not the only one to fall head over heels with a new Snapshot every season. In soft or ultra-pop colours, compact yet practical, the Snapshot is the ideal small bag to carry with you every day. Another Marc Jacobs blockbuster is The Tote Bag. Because there's only one like it. Ultra-easy to wear, it has reached iconic status thanks to its ingenuity, and stands out from its rivals with its name emblazoned on one side - a humorous touch from the designer. The latest output from this creative mind is the J Marc, an ingenious bag that can be worn three different ways, with something for every style.
