New York Fashion Week: Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring Summer 2008 Runway Review
September 20, 2007
For S/S ‘08 the Marc by Marc Jacobs collection was a study in symmetry.
Designer Marc Jacobs (who also juggles roles as designer of his signature collection and as creative director of Louis Vuitton) brought a whimsical fantasy of doubles to his presentation.
Everything had a counterpart as garments came together that were half blazer and half motorcycle jacket. Different tones came together in the same garments. Jacobs brought forth a duality that distinguishes this collection from the other S/S ‘08 collections.
Whether the garments translate to sales at retail level remains to be seen. But the demand for the accessories should be strong, from colorfully bold shoes, to polka dot print ties to colorful standout belt buckles.

i love the side A side B of the tops!
Love the jackets, the overall presentation of the show was very unique and greatly excuted, Marc is a designer to reckon with
Ewww what guy would wear short shorts!!!!! What are the fashion desigeners thinking
What man would wear this kind of clobber??? As Ashley says, what are the designers thinking when they put pen to paper to design things like this. Perhaps they were tripping???
Wonderful!
I don’t know who bothers to design ugly ill-fitted board shorts.
What are THOSE “fashion” designers thinking.
This on the other hand is genius.
Which part of that jacket is the motorcycle part?
