I probably don’t need to reiterate how much I love Marc Jacobs. His version of American fashion is iconic. But this season’s accessories have been a little so-so as far as I’m concerned. The 2010 Rockstar clutch is a pretty good example of how the line is frustrating me.
Firstly, naming the bag Rockstar creates some pretty high expectations. When I hear the word “rockstar” I think black leather, gold lame, and maybe chains. But certainly not houndstooth. Houndstooth is for couches. Maybe not gold houndstooth, but still; it’s a little conservative to be rock-n-roll, no matter how you spin it.
Secondly, the bag is pretty boring. The shape is classic and ladylike, but that’s not really what I want out of my “rockstar” bag, do you? I feel like Marc Jacobs is just trying to use up the last of the houndstooth fabric from a couple of seasons ago. And for $850, I at least want something new.
