In a way I think the press has just as much to do with this hype as Marc does, if not more. He's kissing his own a**, which is fine, I mean if anyone has a right to kiss their own a** it's him....but with the press kissing it too it's just too much to tolerate. It makes me miss the days when he was the charming little geek who just happened to be the coolest person at the party. Now he's become the arrogant pretty boy that everyone only pretends to think is cool.
That said I'm dying to see what his collection will be like next week. Small shoulders and lots of buttons sounds interesting.

I agree...I think it's the media's fault that I've become so sick of this new persona of Marc's. When this article was posted, I seriously thought it was the article I read
literally yesterday in the New Yorker....can journalists think of nothing more to say about him than how he loves to go to the gym?
Why not write an article in which he talks about the specifics of his most recent collection(s). Or an article that describes a day in the Marc Jacobs/ LV studio, the seamstresses, the assistants, etc. Or how about an article that details his love of modern art...that's what I loved so much about the Marc/ LV documentary. It pretty much avoided all the gossip and media hoopla (even though it was made right before the breaking point of his celeb mania)...it was just about him and his work and that's it. It was fantastic.
