Entering fashion history in 1993 with his notorious grunge collection for Perry Ellis, Marc Jacobs would soon be hailed by American Vogue as the “Dauphin of doomy and loud cool.” He quickly became one of the most influential designers of his generation, both at the helm of his own label and as creative director of Louis Vuitton from 1998 to 2014. Known for his collaborations with prominent artists, musicians, and muses—from Stephen Sprouse to Sonic Youth, Debbie Harry, Sofia Coppola, and Chloe Sevigny—Marc Jacobs changed what it means to be a fashion designer, much like Warhol once did and changed what it meant to be an artist, according to fashion historian Valerie Steele. Opening with an essay on the designer’s work, Marc Jacobs: Unseen unfolds chronologically, revisiting the designer’s most iconic creations and revealing the behind-the-scenes moments of models, hairdressers, stylists, makeup artists and Marc Jacobs himself at his most creatively invisible. Robert Fairer’s stunning photographs capture the youth, glamour and spirit that defined Jacobs’ shows.
