Just in case your memory’s a little hazy, I’ve revisited Jacobs’ most unforgettable moments—sartorial and otherwise—from his time at Louis Vuitton…

001m

Fall 1998 marked Marc Jacobs’ first collection for Louis Vuitton. Held in a silent salon in Paris, the show was clean and minimal.

002m

Marc Jacobs tapped Stephen Sprouse as Louis Vuitton’s first guest artist. The collaboration resulted in the house’s iconic neon graffitied monogram bags, which debuted for Spring 2001.

003m

Takashi Murakami became the second Vuitton guest artist in 2002. A parade of models in candy-colored satin frocks carried the collaborative bags down the house’s Spring 2003 runway.

004m

Lily Cole opened Marc Jacobs’ tartan- and fur-filled Fall 2004 Vuitton show. She was just 16 at the time.

005m

When Spring 2005 rolled around, Jacobs enlisted Christina Ricci—then the face of the brand—to open Vuitton’s circus-inspired show.

006mJacobs kicked off the shopping-tote-as-handbag trend with his sweet-meets-Victorian Spring 2007 offering.

007m

Supermodels including Stephanie Seymour (left), Eva Herzigova, Natalia Vodianova, and Angela Lindvall opened Vuitton’s Spring 2008 show dressed up like characters from Richard Prince’s Nurse Paintings. The artist collaborated with Jacobs on Vuitton’s bags that season.

008m

Jacobs carried a SpongeBob Square Pants bag down his Spring 2008 runway. The accessory was Jacobs’ response to criticisms he had received earlier that season for his eponymous range, the palette of which was inspired by the cartoon.

009mMadonna donned a look from Jacobs’ Fall 2009 collection for Vuitton—taffeta rabbit ears and all—to the 2009 Met Gala.

010mModels wore supersized Afro wigs down the runway at Vuitton’s youthful Spring 2010 show.

011m

Marc Jacobs celebrated the feminine form with his Fall 2010 collection, and enlisted bombshells like Lara Stone, Bar Refaeli, and Elle Macpherson to model his décolleté-baring wares.

012m

Kate Moss walked out smoking—literally—during Jacobs’ fetish-themed Fall 2011 show.

013m

More demure this time, Moss closed Jacobs’ enchanting Spring 2012 show, which was set against a massive white carousel.

018m

A nod to the house’s history, a giant locomotive served as the backdrop for Vuitton’s Fall 2012 show.

019m

In 2012, Jacobs unveiled a Vuitton collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The team-up resulted in a polka-dotted handbag and ready-to-wear collection, as well as elaborate store installations.

015m

Daniel Buren created the mesmerizing escalator set for Vuitton’s Spring 2013 checkerboard collection.

016m

Kate Moss slithered out in a veritable negligee to close Vuitton’s Fall 2013 catwalk.

017m

Marc Jacobs took a bow after the Fall 2013 Vuitton show in his now-signature pj’s.

    First of all I would like too say great blog!
    I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing. I have had difficulty clearing my mind
    in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints?
    Cheers!
