More on Marc Jacobs:

It seems some people were just born to "be" something, and Marc Jacobs was apparently born to be a designer.

Having decided in grade school that he wanted to be a designer, Jacobs learned to knit and began embroidering jeans. He went on to attend the High School of Art and Design in New York, and later became a celebrated student at New York's Parsons School of Art and Design.

Marc Jacobs' edgy creations have appealed to the hip, youthful and trendsetting crowd since the 1990s, and has made him such a legend among fashion forward celebrities, that even super models like Linda Evangelista and Naomi Campbell were willing to walk his first runway show free of charge.

Marc Jacobs handbags were added to the Marc Jacobs International line in 2000, and have since become one of the most coveted items available from this celebrated designer.
