It was already one of the most highly anticipated shows this season, but with the rumours swirling around with regards to any possible courting from the house of Dior, Marc Jacobs' spotlight was suddenly hotter and brighter than ever, and the buzz around the show turned into a frenzy. The show was a buffet of all things shiny, sparkly, iridescent, tacky even (what is that? silver foil? lime green metallic pleather?). You'd think that it would all be a bit too much. However, true to form, designer Marc turned all of these elements into a provocative collection- think Stepford robots meets 60's Sci-fi. The silhouette was prim and proper, but the clothes were anything but. Texture and transparency were experimented with, and with the right dose of Mod-ish quirkiness and just a pinch of grungy gauche, Marc's collection sky-rockets as yet another successful showing and a perfect end to Fashion Week in New York.
