Por Homme – Men's Lifestyle, Fashion, Footwear and Culture Magazine

There’s a ton of promising news coming out of Louis Vuitton. Marc Jacobs has announced that he will not be leaving the Italian label for Christian Dior. In fact, the the man that’s been at LV for 15 years is being honoured through an exhibition at the Musée des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, called ‘Louis Vuitton – Marc Jacobs’. The showing will be spread over two floors and is dedicated to the life and work of both Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs.

The show will feature some of the finest pieces in the Louis Vuitton archive, from one of the first trunks made in 1869 by Monsieur Louis Vuitton himself while there will be a solid focus on the work of Marc Jacobs as well. The creative consultant to the show is Katie Grand with Sam Gainsbury and Joseph Bennett designing the exhibition.

The show opens the night of Louis Vuitton’s show for Autumn/Winter 2012 which will close Paris Fashion Week, on March 8.

Here we have a look at Marc Jacobs’ Spring 2012 preview. The styles are more subtle than we’d expect from the label this time around. There’s much to look forward to including waxed pants, blazers with gold-button detailing and much more.

Marc by Marc Jacobs looks to deliver this leather tote bag for the upcoming Fall/Winter 2011 season. It’s made from a pebble-grained chocolate leather and features one large compartment as well as two smaller exterior pockets with buckle detailing. The vegetable-tanned leather straps and brown suede throughout the body really work well against the chocolate leather shell.

Look for this through Marc by Marc Jacobs shops and select retailers worldwide.

Well, if you’re a fan of Marc Jacobs then you’ll be happy to hear he’s taken his fine products online. You’ll find pieces from the Marc Jacobs Collection, Marc by Marc Jacobs and even Little Marc Jacobs in case the kiddies feel left out.
