Marc Jacobs S/S 2010

A remarkable feminine touch at Marc Jacobs. Celebrated American designer Marc Jacobs has done it again this season and surprised us with an astounding collection that felt as if it came out of a Broadway show. This innovative idea was inspired by feminine motivations from the ballet, opera and the theater. There was also inspiration from legendary modern dancer, the late Martha Graham. This collection was all about delicate touches of organza, frou-frou ruffles and embellishments of crystals or pearls. The ruffled touches were seen on long jersey dresses, short delicate dresses and on rompers. The light fabrics were elegant and sheer flowing from the body gracefully. With each look it was all about layering whether it be a ruffled jersey dressed that was paired with a soft green military jacket or a lingerie bra top worn over a romper. Every piece had a soft touch to it with the core color palette of lavender, pink and ivory. With this collection genuinely brought the fantasy of cabaret to life in this collection. Marc Jacobs brings us innovation with simple feminine touches along with his distinctive edge in this collection.

The show was held at the common venue, the historic Downtown Armory on Lexington Avenue. This massive site was simple and entirely white with all the focus on the clothes. Soundtrack for the show was from Charli XCX’s single, “Lilac a Libertine.” With a simple white room with a A-list crowd, including pop legend Madonna front and center, the anticipation of the show was filled with excitement. Model Iris Strubegger opened the show in a high belted raincoat over a organza ruffled romper paired with Japanese inspired sandals embellished in crystals. The makeup supplemented immense character that was theatrical with kabuki style powdered face and hair done up in a ballet chignon knot. There was a lot of precise tailoring that were seen in the pin striped and A-line jackets. A hint of military was visible in a few jackets that were belted at the waist. This collection was all about the frou-frou ruffles, tulle and organza that were perceptible in the dresses and rompers.

Stylist, buyers and editors all agreed that this collection was well adored in it’s entirety. The stand out pieces were the military inspired jackets that were impeccably tailored added some edge to each piece it was paired with. The short party dresses that ruffled resembling a mermaid scales were remarkable.

Marc Jacobs has brought the fantasy of theater to life and is one of the only true innovative American designers in fashion today. This collection will set many trends in fashion and Jacobs truly sets the fashion standards to a new level. The Marc Jacobs women the next spring season is ready to show off her femininity while remaining strong and edgy. -Brent Billiman, New York City, USA.
