New York Fashion Week 2014

Mark Holgate comments on Marc Jacobs collection...
"
Should one always read the signs—or what one imagines are the signs—at a Marc Jacobs show? A dreamlike suspension of white clouds scudding high above the audience’s heads, drawing the eye up, a depiction of skyward freedom? The sound track that consisted of a lush yet melancholic orchestral passage playing as Jessica Lange intoned the words to “Happy Days Are Here Again.” (If you’re only familiar with the likes of the Judy and Barbara version, then you’ll want to get a load of this one.) A colour palette of bone and ivory and beige and nude, a scheme of whispering neutrals that indicated a cleansing-like reset on everything? Was all this an indication of where Marc Jacobs’s head is at post–Louis Vuitton? Honestly, really, who cares? The wonderful thing about Marc Jacobs is that he is capable of conjuring up a million different moods, alighting on something, only to turn 180 degrees the very next season."


I love the collection, it is dreamy, dainty and beautiful. The flowing garments do express a Ethereal Feel, this is done through the pastel colour pallet used, alongside the striped back make-up showcasing conventional beauty.
