The Marc Jacobs Collection - Bettina Network's Blog

The Marc Jacobs Collection

We had a wonderful guest who had been to the most recent Marc Jacobs show – collection – for resort wear (I think).

She would not write a blog, so we are taking her comments and passing them along.

At breakfast she brought her lap top to show us what is happening in the design world.  It was predictable and the most prevalent comment which went along with those watching around the table was – ‘is this clothes-pedophillia?

That stopped me for a moment because I didn’t know what to make of the comment.  It was like another comment I was trying to take in and that was about the Washington Post and its new owner trying to take over the world and using his ownership of the Washington Post to control and get rid of the competition.  They were both earth shattering comments.  So we picked ourselves up off the floor and tried to understand.  When the owner of the Washington Post is also the founder of Amazon.com that should be a conflict of interest and it is time for the government to take a hard look at moving to stop this monopoly that Mr. B is trying to put in place.  If they don’t it will be too late, because he will be too powerful – if that hasn’t already happened.

Our worlds were certainly splattered into little pieces.  What does this all mean?

As we looked at the Marc Jacobs show on the computer – we began to understand.  It looked as though the 13 year old models have become the inspiration and the clothes look as though they are walking through their high school dream sequence.  Nothing was there for anyone over 15 years old and even the 13 to 15 year olds that, we thought, this collection was obviously reflecting, were stuck in a class that stopped at ‘lower middle’.

Harsh words, but amazingly accurately reflected the opinion around the table.

What more is there to say.  The world is changing and many of us are so busy we are sleeping through changes that are life negating.
