I don’t throw cell phones. I don’t hurt people, I only hurt myself.

We live in a world where people are really hungry for information, and they're not hungry for information on subjects that they're not interested in.

I am a perfect being in a perfect world.

Awkwardness gives me great comfort. I've never been cool, but I've felt cool. I've been in the cool place, but I wasn't really cool - I was trying to pass for hip or cool. It's the awkwardness that's nice.

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.'

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.

Sephora is a mecca for cosmetics, and it supports what I enjoy: You go into the store, and touch it, and try it, and love it. I've never bought anything on the Internet. I like experience.

For people that don't have any interest in the psychology of nuance, who need everything to be in their face, who don't want to analyze... those aren't the people I romanticize about dressing.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I believe that anything can be for men or women. I mean, I've worn a lace dress before!

I value very much the time before the show, when there is nothing else but to concentrate on the show, and it's just purely design.

Sex is always good, isn't it? Well, actually it's not always good, but it's always a good thing.

I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.

When you design a dress you ask yourself, would woman like it or no. It's much more of a creative process, not a research or trying to make somethings that sells or appeals. I hope that it will appeal to somebody, but it isn't what drives me.

I don't think, 'Gee, I'd like to dress this person.' There was a picture in Us magazine. It was a jersey dress, and Courtney Love was wearing it. I have this thing about Courtney Love, this funny worship.

I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.

I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.

I always wanted to be a fashion designer so I just have to remember that as long as I'm doing it I'm living the dream.

Design is a series of creative choices - it's a collaborative effort, an evolutionary process. You choose your fabrics depending upon what you want to say, then you work with mills to get those fabrics. Through the process, you realize what you want it to be.
