I'm a designer. I make clothes and bags and shoes. I have a job that involves making creative choices, but I'm not a divinely inspired human being like an artist!

More quotes by Marc Jacobs
I've been openly gay since I can remember.
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 believe that anything can be for men or women. I mean, I've worn a lace dress before!
Marc Jacobs
I always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me.
Marc Jacobs
Sephora is a mecca for cosmetics, and it supports what I enjoy: You go into the store, and touch it, and try it, and love it. I've never bought anything on the Internet. I like experience.
Marc Jacobs
I think journalists have the right to their opinions but I think their opinions should be based on history and what they see, not what they feel, how long they've been waiting or whether it's raining or it's snowing or whatever.
Marc Jacobs
I used to buy good shoes, now I buy good bags. They make me feel more confident.
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 don't think there is just one Louis Vuitton woman. That is why, for the fall/winter 2011 show, I loved the idea of lots of different characters - a wife, a mistress, a girlfriend - stepping out of the row of hotel elevators.
Marc Jacobs
I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.
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
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
You don`t have the same reaction to a girl walking around the street today in a nightgown and a vintage coat and sneakers, that you did six years ago.
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
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.
Marc Jacobs
I said, 'Okay, it's the year 2000, I'm getting a computer and a Palm Pilot.' I know how to check my e-mail, and I've listed some phone numbers on it. Half the time the battery has gone out so I can't use it.
Marc Jacobs
I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.
Marc Jacobs
I still appreciate individuality. Style is much more interesting than fashion, really.
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
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.
