I'll be honest with you, I was a little underwhelmed by Marc Jacobs' Marc by Marc Jacobs collection which is why I decided not to feature it here, but showed the accessories instead. It looks like he was reserving the best for his main collection, and while people have complained that he abandoned the 70s influences of his last highly lauded Fall collection, you can't fault him for constantly coming up with new and interesting ideas. As with many of the other collections we have seen, whether it be by way of feathers, sequins or pleats and folds on skirts, there's no denying that texture is certainly playing a huge part in the looks of Spring 2012.
Of course Marc Jacobs also plays with the idea of transparency but in this instance this takes the form of layering plasticised material over buttoned-down shirts. He also plays with proportion by sending abbreviated jackets down the runway in one instance and then exaggerating the pockets of another. Although the timing of this show was shifted due to extenuating circumstances, it was an excellent way to close out NYFW. It is another extremely influential and directional collection from Marc Jacobs which ensured that the interest in fashion week remained high to the very end.
