Awkwardness gives me great comfort.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I have a lot of tattoos. My first tattoo I had when I was a teenager was just a little heart. I am very friendly with a great artist, Scott Campbell, and I started going to him to get tattoos. I'm very spontaneous about what I get.

It's the things that aren't accepted as conventionally beautiful that I find more attractive.
Marc Jacobs
Image
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.

It just seemed too weird to me. I don't know, maybe they were smoking a joint in the car downstairs from their parents' apartment. I had to go that far to put together a scenario of how they could have possibly recognized me.

Image
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
Image
I'd like to be invisible. To be anonymous and see things for what they really are. The truth may be painful but it's probably useful!
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.

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.

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
Image
I believe that anything can be for men or women. I mean, I've worn a lace dress before!
Marc Jacobs

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.
Marc Jacobs
Image
As far back as I can remember, I had an interest in fashion. I used to go to sleepaway camp, and they'd provide a list of things that you had to bring, and I always wanted to be a bit more creative than the list allowed. Like, if they required chinos, I wanted to hand-paint them.

Any opportunity to adorn oneself is human, and accessories are an easy way to do it.
Marc Jacobs
Image
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
Image
I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.

Makeup is the finishing touch, the final accessory.

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.
Marc Jacobs
Image
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.'

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.
