I'd like to believe that the women who wear my clothes are not dressing for other people, that they're wearing what they like and what suits them. It's not a status thing.

More quotes by Marc Jacobs
I wouldn't know how to find eBay on the computer if my life depended on it.
Marc Jacobs
I like people who have a sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that’s natural and that’s real.
Marc Jacobs
Awkwardness gives me great comfort.
Marc Jacobs
Luxury is about pleasing yourself, not dressing for other people
Marc Jacobs
I like to take on the thing I don't like at the moment. I like to find something that looks wrong or feels off, something that I would never have done in the past, like brocade. And then all of a sudden, if we can make brocade work, then we've really done something, because I hate it. And that's just a reference. I don't actually hate brocade.
Marc Jacobs
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.
Marc Jacobs
Fashion is just something money can buy. People who are stylish are free and have no fear in staying true to themselves. Plus, style is infinitely more interesting.
Marc Jacobs
I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.
Marc Jacobs
I don't think there is ever a wrong time for a polka dot.
Marc Jacobs
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.
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
Anyone who thinks designers don't talk to editors, and editors don't talk to stores doesn't know what's happening...It's called crossover, sampling all references in music, art and fashion.
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
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
Any opportunity to adorn oneself is human, and accessories are an easy way to do it.
Marc Jacobs
It's the things that aren't accepted as conventionally beautiful that I find more attractive.
Marc Jacobs
When I was starting out, it seemed like there were so many girls who were known by their first names, who were unique, who all had idiosyncrasies and characteristics that made them individual. Those girls stuck around you'd work with them season after season. But now it's completely different.
Marc Jacobs
When you see a fashion show, you see those seven minutes of what was six months of tedious work of, you know, going up an inch and down an inch, changing it from one shade of red to another shade of red. So it's the same as any creative process. The result is what we see, but the process is really labor intensive and work.
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
The red carpet doesn't interest me. I think people become all the same it's like everyone posing from the three-quarter angle in some low-cut, fitted dress it's all the same.
