Marc Jacobs (born April 9, 1963) is an American fashion designer. He is the head designer for his own fashion label, Marc Jacobs, and formerly Marc by Marc Jacobs, a diffusion line, which was produced for approximately 15 years having been discontinued after the 2015 fall/winter collection. At one point there were over 200 retail stores in 80 countries.
He was the creative director of the French design house Louis Vuitton from 1997 to 2014. Jacobs was on Time magazine's "2010 Time 100" list of the 100 most influential people in the world, and was #14 on Out magazine's 2012 list of "50 Most Powerful Gay Men and Women in America". He got married on 7 April 2019, to his long time boyfriend Charly Defrancesco.
Kim Kardashian has taken her talents to Marc Jacobs. The 42-year-old reality star is the new face of the fashion house, starring in the Marc Jacobs fall/winter 2023 collection campaign.
In images released on Wednesday, August 9, Kardashian models the label’s latest designs, including a fluted denim jacket, a polka dot catsuit and the brand’s beloved Tote Bag.
Kardashian also donned the croc-embossed Kiki Ankle Boot, which is fitting considering the moniker is her nickname. Her pair came in white and were equipped with a 3-inch platform heel.
Kardashian’s gig with Marc Jacobs further solidifies her reign in the fashion industry. Last year, she creative directed Dolce & Gabbana’s spring/summer 2023 collection, which was unveiled during Milan Fashion Week in September 2022.
