Following the exciting events of Menswear Paris Fashion Week, renowned American designer Marc Jacobs surprised fashion enthusiasts with an unexpected show in New York City. Known for his penchant for off-calendar presentations, Jacobs returned to the iconic New York Public Library to showcase his Fall 2025 collection. In a similar vein to his previous season, the designer transformed the historic venue into a stage for his vision of Monday maximalism. Titled “Beauty,” this avant-garde collection featured only 19 breathtaking looks, each embodying sculptural silhouettes that resembled elegant cocoons, adorned with oversized bows, vibrant floral prints, and ethereal lace. The collection was presented by models such as Alex Consani, Penelope Ternes, and Sascha Rajasalu, while fashion icons like Julia Fox, Nicky Hilton, and KiKi Layne occupied prime front-row seats, adding to the allure of the event.

“Whatever this era is, it’s tiring at this point.” [youthinasia]
“I am completely and utterly fatigued by Marc’s current CDG/RO-inspired phase. His true creative brilliance shines when he channels the spirit of Miuccia Prada into his moodboard.” [THD96]
“Marc Owens Theyskens des Garçon.” [pradn]
“It’s so absurdly silly that it’s painful to watch.” [FashionFanatico]
“It seems to me that he is merely creating out of sheer boredom. He possesses immense wealth, is at his career’s prime, and is considered legendary by many, yet without a ‘higher purpose’—like deadlines or responsibilities—he produces this sort of nonsense. With too much time on his hands, I feel we are misusing his talents here. Perhaps he should be given a serious, challenging, yet fulfilling role!” [Olaffo]
“To me, this collection resembles Balenciaga as envisioned by Christian Siriano.” [VicTebis]
“I genuinely appreciate that he wants to explore the realm of the bizarre and experimental at this juncture in his career. However, the issue lies in the fact that these designs lack a meaningful narrative. They do not advance the conversation in fashion; they fail to evoke joy. It feels as though he is simply creating for the sake of creation. There’s a noticeable absence of passion in these garments, and I don’t find myself resonating with them on any level.” [Marc10]
