DigÂiÂtal FashÂion EdiÂtor Eve FitzÂpatrick
KickÂing off New York FashÂion Week was the Marc Jacobs AW24 show, a celÂeÂbraÂtion of 4 decades of the fabÂuÂlous brand. With a small, intiÂmate guest list in attenÂdance at the Park Avenue Armory, the show was nothÂing short of a specÂtaÂcle proÂduced by one of America’s most proÂlifÂic showÂmen. OverÂsized tables and chairs designed by the late artist Robert TherÂriÂan towÂered over the modÂels, enhancÂing a carÂtoonÂish and playÂful feel to the collection.
Huge tote bags, upturned heels, strucÂtured stiff taiÂlorÂing, and overÂsized silÂhouÂettes creÂatÂed a remarkÂable paper doll effect. The feel of the 1960s was also paraÂmount and no doubt was a nod to the designer’s childÂhood. Dough eyed makeÂup and overÂsized boufÂfants hugeÂly nod to the era and sucÂcessÂfulÂly comÂpleÂment the skirt suit sets and cropped blazÂers that the 60s were so well known for. WearÂable pieces that also creÂate a playÂful narÂraÂtive involves a unique skill to be able to sucÂcessÂfulÂly manÂuÂfacÂture, yet Marc Jacobs innoÂvÂaÂtive imagÂiÂnaÂtion has done just that.
