It’s like every morning brings news of a yet another fashion person on film.
While this month’s been devoted to The September Issue and we’re most looking forward to the Sundance debut of Jack & Lazaro’s documentary in two weeks, there’s an entire festival dedicated to Marc Jacobs in between.
It’s in Australia, so we can’t quite make it, but they’ve flown Bryanboy in to kick off each night of screenings on the condition he brings his BB bag (the square, ostrich one Marc made just for him for fall 08) everywhere he goes.
They’ll show, of course, Loïc Prigent’s Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton, but they’ll also screen clips from Andy Warhol’s show, Wes Anderson’s The Darjeeling Limited (Marc made the luggage), a video compilation of Marc’s runway shows and a few films to set the scene of the old New York in which Marc rose to fashion fame.
The festival runs through September 6th, so if you’re down there soak up all the Marc you can in case they can’t squeeze you into his front-row only show.
