Marc Jacobs - Fashion Week 2007, New York

Marc Jacobs always claims he has no real ambition beyond making beautiful clothes for the moment, and because he demonstrates this on a fairly regular basis, we must assume his thinking is as simple as that.

Yet in his last three shows he has attempted to go beyond the temporal limits of the runway and give clothes the emotional charge of a film or a painting. Other designers create elaborate sets in which to project a mood or an atmosphere; Alexander McQueen and John Galliano come first to mind. But often you feel that the set exists mainly to get good pictures to coerce an emotion out of you that is not readily apparent in the clothes. It has no real value. ~ New York Times
