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.

More quotes by Marc Jacobs
It's so weird how scary it is at the beginning of rehab, and then you bond with the people, and it's really an amazing experience. It is impossible to do it on your own, and it's good to ask for help when we need it.
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
It's quite nice to see that I didn't have to change who I was to reach two very different types of people.
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 love my life. I can't believe I work in New York and Paris. That I work for Louis Vuitton. That I work for Marc Jacobs. It seems really weird every time I say my full name - like, that's me, and every time I hear the receptionist say my name, it's still weird.
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
I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.
Marc Jacobs
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.
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
I like the sort of 'nothingness' of the jeans and the T-shirt. I feel that's about as close as I can get to the future because it seems like something so old that will always be, so I feel it's a safe bet for the future.
Marc Jacobs
I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.
Marc Jacobs
Cigarettes and chocolate milk shakes are two amazing things.
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
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
I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.
Marc Jacobs
Creativity in any form stimulates creativity in every form, music, arts, literature... I find inspiration in anything. It's all the same.
Marc Jacobs
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.
Marc Jacobs
I don’t throw cell phones. I don’t hurt people, I only hurt myself.
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
But in another, I think a woman's going to go into a shop to find a coat or a jacket and I just don't think she's not going to go into a shop because of a bad review she probably didn't even read.
