Marc Jacobs Likes to Blog?

Everyone knows about Marc Jacobs. What not everyone knows about Marc Jacobs is that he blogs. Or at least that’s what we are lead to believe.

Why not, after all, blogging is in fashion lately, something Marc hasn’t managed for quite a while now (NY fashion show echo was pretty disappointing).

Marc Jacobs blogs, ladies and Gentlemen!

And most of all, he comment-blogs! On New York Post blogs! Answering a posting made by Cathy Horyn and named “New York Random Thoughts” with the 30th comment.

Please feel free to make your own mind – is it Marc? Marc Jacobs? THE Marc Jacobs? Or…?

Dear Cathy…..I wish you could have been at my show. I think it was a really good one. I am happy with it on every level. I deliberately stated I was uninspired this season as I have felt that talking about inspiration is so not the point to making and showing a collection. Inspiration is a catalyst. one is left with an interpretation of those thoughts. In a show context they are meant to “say” something…..I felt it necessary to allow the audience to say what they want, to see what they saw. There was no wrong or right. everyone is entitled to their opinions. Big deal….My last few collections have been nothing but an expression of where I am at and what interests me and my team in terms of cut, shape, color and our individual interests in fashionable clothes. I find so many aspects of life today fascinating…I don’t work in a bubble. I am influenced by the world, and what of the world I know, remember, and hope for. I look forward to the chance to speak to you soon…I really felt a need for calm, and yes, each season is a reaction to the one that came before it. I am certain that what we chose to promote this season was the only, and perfect answer. and, for all those who think Spring Summer didn’t sell…..perhaps, they should check our figures before assuming such as fact. I hope you are feeling better…All my best, Marc.
