Overview

Marc by Marc Jacobs was a diffusion line launched in 2001 by New York-based American designer Marc Jacobs together with his business partner Robert Duffy. It offered clothing for women and men, as well as accessories such as bags, at more affordable prices than the main line, Marc Jacobs. It ceased to exist as a standalone brand in 2015, and its products were integrated into Marc Jacobs.

    Launched in 2001, Marc by Marc Jacobs was developed primarily across RTW, bags, and accessories as a diffusion line intended to bring the main brand’s vision to a broader customer base. Its independent operation ended in 2015, after which it was integrated into the main brand. Current products incorporate designs referencing the Marc by Marc archive and also serve to carry on the memory of the former diffusion line.
