Nars Cosmetics celebrates its 15th birthday. In order to make that moment a really special one, Nars has come up with a special project: 15×15. Currently a month away, the 15×15-day is the launch day of a book featuring Nars’ friends.

Someone in Melbourne thought it would be a fashionable thing to have a Marc Jacobs on Film moment during their Spring Fashion Week. All week, all Marc Jacobs. Isn’t it fabulous?
Six films praise Marc Jacobs talents and fash-contributions, films he didn’t even know about! And to show just how modern and upbeat everything Marc Jacobs [...]

After seeing what he’s willing to do for taxes payers rights, let’s get to Marc Jacobs’ serious business. What’s in his plate right now?

Charming Marion Cotillard covers BlackBook magazine June 2009 looking all beautiful and unrecognizable in Marc Jacobs (whose creations seem to be really French-popular).

The designer is usually one step behind the model when presenting his/her creations. This time is different. CFDA’s Diane von Furstenberg decided to make things differently this year: instead of having models posing in designer creations, we now have designers showing their own work.
Jason Wu’s blue plated flowy dress worn under a suit vest looks [...]
