Marc
Jacobs Handbags
Marc Jacobs was born on April 9 1963 in the city of New
York. He attended the prestigious High School of Art and
Design and later the Parsons School of Design. His first
project was for the Weiser family chain of stores, Charivari.
It was to make and design hand knitted sweaters for the
store. He received great honors while he was in Parsons,
including the Chester Weinberg Gold Thimble, the Perry Ellis
Gold Thimble and a Design Student of the Year award. Soon
after he was presented with the awards, he was contacted
by Robert Duffy to design for the Ruben Thomas Inc Sketchbook
label. Robert Duffy and Marc Jacobs soon joined Perry Ellis
where they were in charge f the women's fashion. By the
year 1997, the two were already immersed in many projects
and were soon connected with Louis Vuitton where they started
designing and making handbags. It was in this very same
year that the initial Marc Jacobs store opened in New York.
The Handbags
Marc Jacobs handbags are known to be very versatile and
chic. Their designs range from the ultra feminine to the
ruggedly feminine. Right now, Marc Jacobs handbags usually
have designs which are offered for each season and they
usually appeal to all kinds of women.
A Marc Jacobs handbag is noted for their versatility and
sturdiness. The Marc Jacobs handbags come in a range of
materials from classic leather to the more modern linen.
Some of the bags come in fashionable colors, such as purple,
orange and green while others will suit the more conservative
in their classic black, browns and ecru colors.
The more notable Marc Jacobs handbags are the leather patchwork
or quilted designs that are usually outfitted with gold
fittings and accessories. These have caught the attention
of many a fashionista and are in demand up to today despite
having been made for some time already. Many of the Marc
Jacobs handbags will also complement the shoes that the
designer is also well known for.
Some Marc Jacobs handbag designs utilize all kinds of leather
for the more particular consumer such as ostrich and others.
Other materials are more common but made into eye catching
colors especially those for the resort line. Marc Jacobs
handbag designs are also very casual and at the same time
have refreshing colors and have a decidedly new concept
of a look of a smaller bag in a bigger one. If you can do
not want to break your bank for the designer original, you
can always choose an designer inspired alternative handbag
for less.
