More quotes by 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.

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.

I've been openly gay since I can remember.

Grunge is a hippied romantic version of punk.
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
Art critics are like every other critic.
Marc Jacobs
I don't know the history of art, but I got over intimidation from the art world when I realized that I was allowed to feel whatever I want and like whatever I want.
Marc Jacobs
I don't think there is ever a wrong time for a polka dot.

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.
