Marc Jacobs’ infamous grunge collection got him fired; it also won him the CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year Award. He went on to become the creative director for Louis Vuitton for sixteen years before leaving to concentrate on his own eponymous line. In his first online class, the eleven-time CFDA Award-winning designer teaches his hands-on process for creating clothes that push boundaries and set trends. Learn Marc’s construction techniques, how he creates unique shapes and silhouettes, and how you can develop your own ideas from first sketch to final piece.
