Marc Jacobs

New York based Parsons graduate Marc Jacobs launched his label in 1986 and by 1987 was the youngest designer to have been awarded the fashion industry’s highest tribute - the CFDA Perry Ellis Award for New Fashion Talent. Jacobs produced his first full menswear collection in 1994 and three years later was appointed as Creative Director of Louis Vuitton; a position he still holds today in tandem with his eponymous label and a growing number of diffusion lines.
