Marc Jacobs

A visual celebration of the designer's twenty-year career, a trajectory that launched from whiz-kid extraordinaire and the toast of New York's Parsons School of Design to one of the brightest, most successful, and most imitated international designers on the planet. A story of passion, dogged determination, countless obstacles, and a firm belief in style as a major cultural barometer. Jacobs has achieved the status of ultimate hip designer by celebrating fashion as amirror of life's gleeful ironies - from bad girls to good girls and all-out geeks! Everyone's invited! Illus., 60 color/b&w photos. 80p.
