Playing Kool Thing at a fashion show full of anorexic models is totally an ironic statement by Sonic Youth that was too clever for Marc Jacobs to notice.

p.s. these clothes are my grandma's style. i don't mean that in a bad way but the sad thing is that he wasn't inspired or had concept. good music though. perhaps classical music would have made more sense with this collection...
This is a great idea. He is ahead of his time a visionary. Sonic Youth played "jams run free" off the Rather Ripped album, and "Kool Thing" from the Goo album.
Marc Jacobs understands what NYC was as a creative mecca...
Its lost its edge. I can see why some would not like Sonic Youth with these clothes. Its about a feeling that and it works. He is on a whole another level. Some people get it, some never will. He's major visionary and that's a fact...
The lack of diffierent ethnicities on the runway is upsetting, especially since some designers actually ask specifically for white models. We all have different skin tones and body types that are beautiful and unique, the Fashion industry should use that to their advantage.
Totally agree! Some designers have utilized diversity to increase their marketing, smart move, while others are stuck in the elitist zone of having nothing but ice-y Eastern European blonde girls...
I totally disagree with the general sentiment of all so far. This collection was innovative, fearless, and will once again predict the upcoming trends for fall and winter '08. So reminiscient of Grace Jones eighties, instead of the usual 80s mall/valley/Flashdance girl. However, I am not into fashion shows becoming rock concerts, ugh, can the focus please be on the clothes and not on the "scene"? It's like -- we get it, you're edgy, shut up
Marc Jacobs is a great designer who i love and respect, but he always leaves mr thinking twice about his collecton, at first i hate his collection than i love the next day....but this collection left me clueless i dont under stand who would wear the unusual and ugly shapes and muted colors..its unflattering and aside from a few jackets coats and sweaters i thought Marc could of done a lot better
I like to feel sexy....knowing someone is watching me ..wanting me...turns me on!BADLY! I like to flirt and pose..and sometimes i like to get WILD! how? ..he he..come in video and youll see:-)) maybe u can teach me something..or maybe i will ! come visit me at MeetYourFling * COM my user-id there is belia-amdq chat soon on cam :-) rfaxalybg
I totally agree with you. Since he went to rehab, started working out and caring about the celebrity attention, Marc Jacobs has been sending out somewhat plain and not very thought out collections, only really caring about his self image. I hope he comes around.
the collection is very avant garde indeed. sonic youth adds that extra something that always envelops each of marc's shows. he is truly a fashion virtuoso.
OMG! I love how Marc is just being a dick to people about starting the showing on time because everyone gave him such a hard time for his tardiness in past seasons lol! But I thought this collection was really on trend. And you can't really hate him for being quirky because that's him. I love his collections for Vuitton better. I mean they have the same kind of mood, yet Vuitton always has that extreme blaitan lux about it and Marc Jacobs collection always has a urban New York coolness about it.
I only cared about the fashion show in this regard: even knowing that Sonic Youth (my favorite band) has always been obsessed with pop culture, this is one of the most bizarre videos I've ever seen. Didn't anyone dig the irony when Kim Gordon sang about "liberating us girls from male, white, corporate oppression?" in the middle of an NYC fashion show?? Only SY pulls this off so well--in the middle of the very exploitative thing they are both fascinated and repulsed by at the same time.
honestly like the music choice, like the gowns at the end, i like some of the trousers, some of those coats, but i think he's trying to sell his customers out with all the extra fabric. honestly.
This is my favorite Marc Jacobs collection. Absolutely caustic, strange, interesting and fucked. Perfect.

Marc Jacobs worse
i didnt like anything on that runway in the begining then it got a little better but i was still very dissapointed
he could of done waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy better

there was nuthing pretty, sexy or chic
