I am Marc Jacobs by birth, but we are Marc Jacobs by the company that we built.

I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.

I like the sort of 'nothingness' of the jeans and the T-shirt. I feel that's about as close as I can get to the future because it seems like something so old that will always be, so I feel it's a safe bet for the future.

I mean, I'd love to have a private jet - I know people who fly by private jet all the time... I've hitched a ride a few times and it is not overrated at all; it's a great way to travel!

I think there is something about luxury - it's not something people need, but it's what they want. It really pulls at their heart.

I'm a designer. I make clothes and bags and shoes. I have a job that involves making creative choices, but I'm not a divinely inspired human being like an artist!

To be useful to others and to be useful to myself is definitely a better place to be.
