Fashion Week-Days 5 & 6

Days 5 & 6 were alll about Marc Jacobs!!!

The Marc Jacobs show was held last night at the NY State Armory. After starting the show 2 hours late...youch..Marc showed one of his wackiest and creative shows yet. The show was done backwards...with his bow and the finale model march at the beginning. The underlying theme seemed to be "Little Girl Playing Dress-up"...complete with the hair and makeup. The pieces were very delicate are a bit too conceptual and "artsy" to consider wearing in real life but the accessories were lovely!

Fabulous! Marc never disappoints...even if you don't love it, it's always new & fresh.

Marc by Marc Jacobs showed today at the NY State Armory. The collection was fantastic! There were tons of primary colors and the 70s were shined on heavily.
