All hail Marc Jacobs. Step aside, Kaiser Karl, 'cuz according to
Time magazine, you and your septuagenarian comrades (Giorgio who?) are no longer the kings of the fashion domain. Enter svelte, can't-believe-he's-47-years-old
Marc Jacobs who, with tatts and piercings and all, is the only designer to rank among the 2010
Time 100 list . Wait, it gets better: Friend and fashion icon
Victoria Beckham was charged with interviewing Jacobs for the issue. She writes,
He inspires and educates me every time we meet. He changes how we see fashion with each collection he shows, be it his work for Louis Vuitton or his own baby, the Marc Jacobs line, which he started in 1986.
Jacobs, who is rumored to have recently split from husband-to-be
Lorenzo Martone, isn't standing alone for the fashion industry, though. Fellow designers
Tom Ford,
Donna Karan, and
Donatella Versace all doffed their design hats for newsboy caps in interviews with
Liya Kebede, architect
Zaha Hadid, and
Jet Li, respectively.
The
Time 100 gala is scheduled for May 4 at Lincoln Center.
Sarah Palin is expected to attend—she loves herself some fashion swag!
