Designer Spotlight: Marc Jacobs

His collections are what every fashion editor writes about. His handbags are the first thing you see when you walk into Nordstrom. His 285 boutiques in 60 countries thrive with good business. His lead role with Louis Vuitton. His cosmetic collection, a new thing for him, but seriously, what more can he do? He's built his fashion empire. His reputation at Parsons was nothing but spectacular as well as the way his fashion label is able to do business. In 1997, Marc was named creative director of Louis Vuitton, and quadrupled the company's profits. His ability to establish himself as a designer and escalate his brand all around the world is truly unbelievable. You can probably tell Marc Jacobs is on that list you make titled "Greatest Human Beings". You guessed right.
