He is an awkward person. Rich, famous, popular and respectable, but awkward. When he tells about his awkwardness in the interview, journalists think it is his extravagance, his image, his little weakness every genius should have. They smile at his confessions and have no idea how painful they are for Mark.
Mark Jacobs is really talented. He started his glorious way on top when he was 16 and this way is still in front of him, it seems, there’s no end of that road to the top of success.
When he met Perry Ellis, a famous designer from “Charivari” (a well known boutique of those times), he made his first step to the fashion Olympus. That unusual man with long hair and in odd clothes taught Mark the main rule of a designer – to be unique. Do not copy, do not compare, don’t be afraid – just let your talent to flower.
Maybe due to this rule JACOBS replica handbags (his visiting card) and everything else he makes are so interesting and fresh.
The second step to the highest position in fashion world was Mark’s meeting with Robert Duffy. This person became his second father (the first died when Mark was 7), his teacher and his partner. “Robert is my sweetest business love”, Mark used to say about Duffy. Jacobs Duffy Designs – their studio- was accepted with delight by fashionable clients. But it didn’t prevent them from bankruptcy. Mark had to start from the very beginning one more time.
After some attempts to work for different fashion houses, at last Mark appeared at Louis Vuitton. From this moment JACOBS replica handbags, shoes and clothes became sold almost in every capital and great city.
But all that success didn’t make Mark Jacobs happy. He took alcohol and drugs and even received medical help. Now a great designer renewed his forces and energy and continues his talented work.
