I Love Marc Jacobs?

Last night, I saw the "Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton" documentary (by Loic Prigent) and I think I'm in love! ...





Chil'!!! Muy caliente! I'm pretty sure he's gay, but who cares? These matters have never affected my celeb crushes!!!


Anyway, enough Tiger-Beat-reminiscing, not only is Marc Jacobs totally hot, but he's totally an artist. I mean, he absorbs shit like a sponge and he also seems to have fantastic people working for/with him. He is a wunderkund. If you haven't seen the documentary yet I highly recommend it. It's tongue-in-cheek (Sundance Channel describes it as "a witty portrait") and lovingly told. The director is French and the humor is very French. I LOVE it! Marc Jacobs has a great sense of humor and doesn't seem to take himself seriously. He doesn't really own real estate, but rather invests all his money into his art collection, which he guards with a privacy that you have to respect.

Being political about every fucking thing, I couldn't help but want to ask him about his manufacturing practices. I mean, in the doc you see his lead team of seamstress' who do his show work, but you know those betches ain't sewing Marc by Marc Jacobs shit (and lemme tell you, much as I sweat him, that line had some atrocious shiny faux-patent leather quilted bags that SCREAMED child labor a month or so ago!) I mean no harm. I admit I could be wrong, but...

Anywho, what the doc made plainly clear is that, "It's only faaaassshion, it's only fashion!" Just like Santino Rice sings here in a Project Runway Season Two Musical (he's another example of a supposedly gay man - bi? - man who I kinda crushed on for a minute, I heart Santino)





That's right! You sing it Santino! It is only fashion. I love fashion that doesn't take itself too seriously (shot out to Heatherette!)




I love those betches, Richie Rich, Travis and Amanda Lepore (you know the world's #1 transsexual - i don't think she designs but she is definitely an inspiration to them. When I used to hit the clubs (ahhhh, Twilo, the Tunnel circa mid-1990s), I always knew the party was getting started when Amanda would show her tits.)


AnyWHO, back to Marc Jacobs. I own a Marc Jacobs tee-shirt. That's about it. Apparently, he doesn't "do" my size, wazzz up wit' dat? Why the hate? I'd like some super-cute-ironic dress too! Goddamit, a bity part of my just wants the fucking panache!!! Let's check out some of his signature looks...

here's some looks from summer '07


Oh, look at this! (Geez Louise that model's forehead is ridiculous, give a betch some bangs! Cute jacket tho...)


I always think of delicious round-toe shoes when I think of Marc (fuck the pointy toe. i ain't no wicked witch of the west!)


Shoes. Shoes. Oh My God, shoes.
