History

Marc Jacobs and Robert Duffy founded the brand in 1984. Jacobs gained notoriety in 1992 for his grunge collection at Perry Ellis, which led to his dismissal but solidified his cultural influence. He served as the creative director of Louis Vuitton from 1997 to 2013, bridging the gap between heritage luxury and contemporary art. The brand remains significant for its role in defining 1990s alternative style and its ongoing collaborations with diverse artists.
