MARC JACOBS may already design for three fashion labels, as well as offering fragrance and accessories, but now he plans to add make-up to that long list.
The designer is working with Sephora on a collection of colour cosmetics, as well as having recently announced that he will launch a new fragrance - Dot - in July.
"Anything to me that is part of the joy, the ritual, of getting dressed - things that women enjoy like bags, shoes, fragrance, clothes, make-up - that's what fashion's about for me," Jacobs said. "I love the opportunity, wherever there is one, to adorn, to decorate, to scent, to dress. That's what fashion's all about. It's not necessary, it's something you want - it's a fancy and a whim."
And whilst Jacobs only had his first meeting about the make-up line last week, he's already showing a lot of enthusiasm for his new venture.
"I see make-up, fragrance - everything, really - as an opportunity. The idea of choosing a colour for your lip, or an eyeliner - it's just such a delight. The ritual of waking up and making those choices is something people really enjoy," he told WWD. "We currently are working on defining what Marc Jacobs cosmetics will be, what they'll say, what makes them distinctive. I think that will take some time, but the first meeting was good."
