Marc Jacobs Fall 2010: Long Dresses

Next in line after the fur bags were the long dresses, detailed with fur collars. The fabric and cut of the dress are very casual and easy but with the fur, oh so chic. Overall the collection was very calm. You can see Marc is in a happy place in his life, which is nice to see. Style quotes him as saying about the collection, “There’s so much striving for newness now that newness feels less new,” which, fair enough…sometimes it’s time to take a breather and refine rather than always reaching for the next summit. Still, one has to wonder if all the chat about Alexanger Wang being the “new” Marc doesn’t light some sort of fire under his behind. In any competetive field, after all, you never want to feel too safe.
