Quote

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.

Awkwardness gives me great comfort.

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 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.

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 always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I'm not good at hiding my feelings. I'm also not good at lying. I'm very open about everything.

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.

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.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.
Marc Jacobs
Image
I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.

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.

I've been openly gay since I can remember.

I think scent is sensual. I guess evoking a mood or a spirit is key, and I think with the women's fragrances we have evoked different types, moods or sensibilities of a woman - whether it's Daisy with the sweetness and the innocence or Lola which is more provocative, sexy and sultry.

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.

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

You can never please everyone, and I think it's best not to.

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.

I used to buy good shoes, now I buy good bags. They make me feel more confident.

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.

I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.
