More quotes by 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 like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.
Marc Jacobs
One thing that is exciting about fashion is the surprise element. People don't know what they want. They just know when they see it.
Marc Jacobs
You can never please everyone, and I think it's best not to.
Marc Jacobs
I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.
Marc Jacobs
I like spending time at home. In Paris, people drop by and have a bite to eat, or they drop by and watch Friends on TV. I take my dog to the office there, and I walk to work sometimes.
Marc Jacobs
I don't love Photoshop I like imperfection. It doesn't mean ugly. I love a girl with a gap between her teeth, versus perfect white veneers. Perfection is just... boring. Perfect is what's natural or real that is beauty.
Marc Jacobs
I used to buy good shoes, now I buy good bags. They make me feel more confident.
Marc Jacobs
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.
Marc Jacobs
I envy the people who go to Paris the first time
Marc Jacobs
My mind absorbs things in a funny way. I'm on planes quite a bit and I always take stacks and stacks of magazines and I go through them and tear pages out and fold them up, and they get stuck at the bottom of my backpack or whatever.
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
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.
Marc Jacobs
I have no problem going on record with this and probably have gone on record with this before, there aren't that many people who I respect. There just aren't.
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 always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me.
Marc Jacobs
I think journalists have the right to their opinions but I think their opinions should be based on history and what they see, not what they feel, how long they've been waiting or whether it's raining or it's snowing or whatever.
Marc Jacobs
I love attention, I'm very honest about it ... [but] if I wanna wear a pink dress or a lace dress or a kilt of whatever, it's like I'm not solely doing it for attention, I'm doing it first for myself because it gives me pleasure.
Marc Jacobs
The Louis Vuitton woman is more about a quality - a quality within some women that needs to come forward, to be noticed and recognised.
Marc Jacobs
Any opportunity to adorn oneself is human, and accessories are an easy way to do it.
Marc Jacobs
