Um, can we just take a min out of post-fashion week media mania to discuss the horror that walked down Marc Jacob’s runway. I mean really, shoulder pads? I thought we were through with them!? Yes, they made a slight comeback with Jennifer Connelly’s Balenciaga ads, but that was a couple seasons ago! Damn the fact fashion is cyclical.
I still have nightmares from outfits in the 80s my mother forced me to wear. I begged and pleaded to cut out the shoulder pads, but she always insisted, “they gave the outfit shape.” Shape?! Shape?! Yea, if I want to look like a football player!
Now you know if MJ is doing it, then we must be onto something. Just look at these coats. Would you buy one? Not to mention they are made in “hello look at me I just walked in the room, you couldn’t ignore me if you tried” colors. I’ll gladly stick with my red, Marc Jacobs classic wool, as seen on Serena van der Woodsen, trench for another season.
Mine is in Red
