Squeal! Clearly not busy enough with Louis Vuitton and his eponymous label, Marc Jacobs is now dipping a toe into the cosmetics pool!
The very busy designer has just confirmed that he is teaming up with Sephora to launch a cosmetics line, which will be an extension of his current – and very successful, may we add – perfume line.
“I love the opportunity, wherever there is one, to adorn, to decorate, to scent, to dress,” he said. “That’s what fashion’s all about. It’s not necessary, it’s something you want – it’s a fancy and a whim.
And what will this cosmetics line consist of, you ask?
“I see makeup, fragrance – everything, really – as an opportunity. The idea of choosing a color for your lip, or an eyeliner – it’s just such a delight. The ritual of waking up and making those choices is something people really enjoy.
“We currently are working on defining what Marc Jacobs cosmetics will be, what they’ll say, what makes them distinctive. I think that will take some time, but the first meeting was good.”
We’ll be bringing you more details as and when we get them. Hands up if you’re excited?
