Marc Jacobs SS11 Ad Campaign


Let's do the time warp again.

We gave this collection a decidedly mixed review after its debut. The seventies are fun and we didn't mind seeing Marc Jacobs put his spin on them, but it seemed a little aggressively focused on the uglier styles of the period and the results were often too literal for our tastes.

But we cannot deny...

These looks take a great picture.

It's a little bit Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver and a little bit Magenta from Rocky Horror, all finished off in an eye-searing disco palette. Walking a runway, they bored us, but standing in the spotlight, representing the brand, they work quite well. You can't not look at them, if only for a second or two.
