Marc Jacobs

HAS MARC JACOBS STARTED A SKIRT TREND FOR MEN?

The CFDA Awards (Council of Fashion Designers of America) is called the Oscars of the fashion world, and participants take it very seriously. So SNL’s Seth Meyers, who hosted, had his work cut out for him. Besides his hilarious comments about Galliano etc, he parodied designer Marc Jacobs outfit at the Met Ball. Seth wore the same sheer Comme des Garcons dress with boxer shorts. On a serious note. we hear that some of Marc Jacobs friends and business associates are very concerned about his extravagant behavior lately. Scandals involving pornstar boyfriends and illegal substances make people wonder about the successful designer’s state of mind.

MARC JACOBS: IT’S NOT EASY TO OUT-DRESS BEYONCE!

Good grief! Step aside, Beyonce and Jessica Alba! We almost overlooked the most noteworthy outfit of ALL at the Met Gala in New York. Mark Jacobs has expanded his men-in-skirts obsession and now he’s upped the ante with sheer black lace! His well-pressed boxer shorts are clearly visible underneath. Only a famous designer could get away with this look. As our Facebook photo source Jordan Navarro pointed out, “He’s definitely making a statement.” And THAT’S what the event was all about….

Debbie Harry, 66, has managed to continue recording and touring since her punk icon days with Blondie back in the 70’s. In those days every girl wanted to look like her. We like her platinum hair – she’s pictured here chatting with fans at a Marc Jacobs event in the West Village.

Marc Jacobs wears a skirt (or kilt) almost every day in New York and on his way to lunch he stopped to play with a cute dog. It’s times like this that he has to be aware of his apparel – especially when squatting – to keep from flashing. He seems to have it under control.

You might think this is a funny outfit, but in fact, Marc Jacobs is such a successful designer that he can wear ANYTHING he likes and get away with it. Lately he’s been partial to kilts and now he’s added colorful Stephen Sprouse inspired tights. It all works because he wore this outfit to the Louis Vuitton tribute to the late Sprouse in New York.

Currently they’re frolicking in the water at St Barts. How Marc manages to design all those clothes and keep up with his numerous romantic adventures is still a mystery.

Marilyn Manson met his future – now exwife – Dita Von Teese at this show. It’s a great big beautiful room loaded with nostalgia and amazing wearable stuff you’ll never see at a mall. (Hint: Halloween costumes!) You never know who might be ogling vintage watches next to you – could be an Olsen twin or Jason Schwartzman.

This picture of designer Marc Jacobs is too good to pass up – for one thing Marc is looking giddily happy with his new Brazilian “husband” Lorenzo Martone. They had a “wedding” ceremony in France, where it is called a “civil solidarity pact.” The vows aren’t legally binding, so Marc doesn’t have to bother with an inconvenient prenup. Marc has fallen in love with kilts for men and wears them all the time, but he’s not including them in his collections. It looks like his kilt was made by Utilikilt.
