I want to see women in pantsuits or two pieces, even something a little bit gaudy. It’s so much more exciting than just another nice dress. – Marc Jacobs
I don’t know, but I always loved that image of a girl putting toenail polish on a guy – her boyfriend, or something like that. Or a guy waking up in the morning and reaching over and putting on his girlfriend’s shirt. Like Keith Richards putting on one of Anita Pallenberg’s blouses, or Courtney Love putting nail polish on Kurt Cobain. – Marc Jacobs
For so many years, I felt so insecure, so inferior, and I still have those moments, but I have a newfound confidence since I got in shape and changed my diet. – Marc Jacobs
Everybody wants to be a celebrity, which is why we have this phenomenon of social media, where nobody wants to be private. We all want to be seen. – Marc Jacobs
I always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me. – Marc Jacobs

Luxury is anything you don’t need, right? I mean, you need food, water, clothing, shelter… but good wine, good food, beautiful interiors, nice clothes; those aren’t necessities, they are luxuries – it’s all luxury. – Marc Jacobs
I always find it kind of embarrassing, kind of funny, and kind of exciting. In New York I’m recognized a lot, although nobody says anything. You know, they stare at you just a second too long. But in Paris it’s not as commonplace to be recognized. – Marc Jacobs
I have no problem going on record with this and probably have gone on record with this before, there aren’t that many people who I respect. There just aren’t. – Marc Jacobs
I think it’s an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable. – Marc Jacobs
Change is a great and horrible thing, and people love it or hate it at the same time. Without change, however, you just don’t move. – Marc Jacobs
Sofia is so active, and she made The Virgin Suicides, which I thought was great – all these things are inspiring to me, not in terms of creating a particular dress, but just in terms of knowing that there is this type of woman out there. – Marc Jacobs
