There’s no doubt that Marc Jacobs has become an industry veteran by now.
The American designer currently holds the final slot for presentations at
New York Fashion Week, has experienced his fair share of controversy and
has run his successful eponymous brand for over 30 years. Now, the designer
is introducing a new line: The Marc Jacobs.
In a press release from Marc Jacobs International, The Marc Jacobs line
is said to have ready-to-wear pieces, bags, shoes, jewelry, and accessories
that highlight the unique process each individual experiences when getting
dressed.
“We wanted to do something unlike the collections we are already doing,
in that it is more item-y,” Jacobs said in a statement. “These items are
things you could put together in your own way; it’s more about personal
styling than having a full runway look.”
The idea behind this new line is to build a wardrobe or items over time.
With each collection, classic silhouettes will be reimagined as the seasons
go on. The Marc Jacobs aims to provide a wide range of sartorial
possibilities for its consumer.
Collaborations will also serve as a pillar for The Marc Jacobs, starting
off with Peanuts and New York Magazine as its first partners. The line will
also feature capsule collections of reinterpreted ready-to-wear pieces and
accessories from Jacobs himself along with his team, which will be titled
m.archive.
The Marc Jacobs launches in May 2019 and will be available in worldwide
in Marc Jacobs stores, select department stores and as well as the Marc
Jacobs website.
