I find people sexy, and I find personalities fascinating and sexy and appealing and charming. So a sexy girl wrapped in a sheet is a sexy girl, and an un-sexy girl in a low-cut dress is still an un-sexy girl.

Sex is always good, isn't it? Well, actually it's not always good, but it's always a good thing.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I think when I started to get in shape and spend time at the gym, I could be better to other people and be better to myself and get back to loving fashion and experience it myself. I started to wear kilts and lace dresses.
Marc Jacobs
Image
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

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
Image
It's quite nice to see that I didn't have to change who I was to reach two very different types of people.

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.

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
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.'
Marc Jacobs

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

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
The thing I most love and hate about fashion is that it changes all the time. But I don't think I or anyone else can singlehandedly get rid of hooker style. Popular taste isn't great by definition. It's just popular.
Marc Jacobs
Image
What's worked for me is not quitting and being passionate about what I do and not giving up - and when I don't believe in myself, turning to others who believe in me.

Sometimes, you just have to clear your head and get out to see other things. It is very important to be nourished. I love to go to museums and galleries, I like to see theatre, film, dance - anything creative. It doesn't promise you inspiration, but it nourishes your creative soul, and that's good.

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.

Makeup is the finishing touch, the final accessory.

I'm not good at hiding my feelings. I'm also not good at lying. I'm very open about everything.

Image
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.

I am really glad to be working at the profession that I love.

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