I was really dissapointed by his a/w collection- the ysl references were really derivative. ESpecially when others, say for example prada sent such an interesting spring collection that nodded to the fourties-by-seventies ysl. i also agree with lizz because i thought marc jacobs spring collection was an inspired effort.

I think he creates something fresh and he makes high fashion at times look wearable. I think his color palette was rich and when everyone else is catching up to his layered look he is turning around completely and trying something different.

It's too vintage for my taste. Lizz and Lena, your words are so true…I’m really not getting this whole YSL old lady look. It’s too vintage for my taste.

Having seen the show he just did, i guess one of his assistants took over last season (and has probably been fired for setting too high a standard) : this season mj appears to be thumbing through the sears catalogue circa 1966. blech. marc jacobs is derivative and a vintage-vulture and a classic case of the king having no clothes: no one will call him out on it.
