More quotes by Marc Jacobs
I can remember years ago, when Kate Moss first came around and there were so many articles. Everyone was saying that it was heroin chic - that she was a waif, that she was anorexic. But Kate would eat just as much as anybody I knew - the media had just turned her into this thing. It must be really, really hard when you're the object of that.
Marc Jacobs
I don't think there is ever a wrong time for a polka dot.
Marc Jacobs
I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.
Marc Jacobs
Luxury is about pleasing yourself, not dressing for other people
Marc Jacobs
I never cared about buying things for myself, like clothes. And then all of a sudden I realized how great it is to be very precise about the shirts that I wear and all the things that are a part of my closet. So the ritual of fashion and shopping became very personal to me.
Marc Jacobs
I don't know the history of art, but I got over intimidation from the art world when I realized that I was allowed to feel whatever I want and like whatever I want.
Marc Jacobs
Fashion is such a fairytale and it is such a fantasy. And it's about metamorphosis and sort of changing yourself and playing a part that you want people to see.
Marc Jacobs
Cigarettes and chocolate milk shakes are two amazing things.
Marc Jacobs
It's the things that aren't accepted as conventionally beautiful that I find more attractive.
Marc Jacobs
Both my partner and I did not get into cooking so that we could wear ugly chef's coats and stuff. We dress sexy in the kitchen.
Marc Jacobs
Creativity in any form stimulates creativity in every form, music, arts, literature... I find inspiration in anything. It's all the same.
Marc Jacobs
I don't think there is just one Louis Vuitton woman. That is why, for the fall/winter 2011 show, I loved the idea of lots of different characters - a wife, a mistress, a girlfriend - stepping out of the row of hotel elevators.
Marc Jacobs
A sellout is putting your name on any piece of crap and then expecting people to buy it because it's got your name on it. That's what a sellout is to me.
Marc Jacobs
Part of the talent of any company is to surround yourself with people who have good spirit and help you do more and more things.
Marc Jacobs
I am really glad to be working at the profession that I love.
Marc Jacobs
Sometimes there are two very opposite directions, and we go with the stronger one at the end. It's an impulse thing, like, 'Oh, I love both so much, but it's got to be one or the other because the two don't work together.'
Marc Jacobs
I think beauty is youth it's energy. I'm attracted to imperfection, style, confidence, and experimentation. So beauty, to me, is really a lot of things. It's kind of unexpected-what surprises you.
Marc Jacobs
Awkwardness gives me great comfort.
Marc Jacobs
I'm a designer. I make clothes and bags and shoes. I have a job that involves making creative choices, but I'm not a divinely inspired human being like an artist!
Marc Jacobs
I don't know, but I always loved that image of a girl putting toenail polish on a guy - her boyfriend, or something like that. Or a guy waking up in the morning and reaching over and putting on his girlfriend's shirt. Like Keith Richards putting on one of Anita Pallenberg's blouses, or Courtney Love putting nail polish on Kurt Cobain.
