What is Marc Jacobs trying to say with this ad?
Did one of her feet catch fire because the footwear is so hot and she had to cool it in the lav?
Is this like a mythological reference I am missing?
If it helps, Marc Jacobs is an Aries and when Pluto was trining his Sun a few years ago, he pulled off a stupendous make-over moment. He went from very plump & pale to buff and inked. Everyone knows that Aries men with good enough bods will use any excuse to get their shirt off. I think some of them even spill shit on their shirts so they have to quickly whip them off in public, to soak the stain, you understand.
One of his tatts is on his right wrist or something and it says “perfect.”
This sounds v.Aries male too, does it not: “In the most basic way I can say it, coming from a psychological place, what I love more than anything is attention. That is about as honest of a statement that I could possibly make. I want a reaction, because I want the attention.”
But the chick with the foot in the loo? What’s that about? Maybe it’s some sort of a fancy anima statement. Hello, Jungians?

Can’t see what he is advertising exactly…
She looks like a ballerina bride and I suppose the obvious thought is that she has some issue with anal retention and MJ is mocking her Virgo-ness and taking her down a peg by humiliating her virginal purity by placing her a loo in a misogynistic and masochistic rejection of his own anima/his worshipers?Who did he let choose his tattoos? Sponge Bob? Seriously… this is what happens when Aries gets too much attention.
-
I actually didn’t realise it was a toilet until I read the comment….
-
Or maybe that you can rise above any shit when you’re wearing one of his fab dresses?!!! That would be more of an aries statement! Have to give him credit tho, he did do a good job on toning his bod!
-
HE’S HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MEEEEOOOOOOW
-
my god, prowin, you and i certainly do *NOT* go for the same kind of men
he does nothing for me.-
I changed my mind … early call and I didn’t have my contacts in ;
-
-
-
No me neither! Couldn’t work out what on earth it was!
-
in fact what he has done is released his inner iggy pop.
happens more often than people want to admit i suspect
“all my life i’ve been polite” etc – power and freedom here he comes.-
All he needs are the track marks to complete his Iggy Pop look. :p and singing talent.
-
-
oh the shoes … right … the ad … umm she’s the muse … the genie in the bottle or in this case … dunny … perhaps marc showing true Arian toilet humour?
Actually looking at him again I’ve decided he’s too skinny and needs to put on some more meat. Oh and grow the chest hair. Spongebob tatt is going to really interfere with the second or third or fourth parties orgasmic moment.
-
I agree, Fire Trine. This is a cynical piss take equating buying one of his handbags with flushing one’s hard earned $ with one’s dignity down the crapper. GFC revenge? Maybe he was a client of Bernie Madoff.
Or perhaps she’s the genie who appears when you rub your Amex cards together. Emerging from the toilet like a barf in reverse to present you with overpriced luxury goods.
As to what he’s trying to say, I wouldn’t expect anything too edgy or profound from a guy who tattoos himself with ‘yes, yes, star star star, shameless, spongebob squarepants, cartoon character, 3 seater couch’. It’s hardly the pinnacle of Western culture is it?
-
oh Uber it’s the season to be JOLLY! OK? …. otherwise I’m gonna have to rearrange them there chakras
-
-
I love the idea of a genie that appears when you rub 2 amex together and summon over a toilet bowl with bulimic offering…
-
-
It’s rather a nice frock though, sans dunny. Or it might look better if he gave her a dunny bowl for each foot, like galoshes, or raised them on six inch heels. Either way, the model is underpaid.
-
She’s emerging a la Esther Williams? She’d been in the shits and now pheonixing which mirrors MJ’s honest outting of himself as being an attention hound?
His adornment of stars tells the story. Oui oui! He’s an Aries for sure. His bellybutton is an outie…
-
Belly buttons have astro significance??
-
Only re the person who created it. Outies are not sexy…
-
Funniest thing I just thought about. Pisces had NO bellybutton as had emergency surgery and cut right through it.
Guess I go with the maimed, deformed and forlorn. Would fit my Pisces MC and Venus sq. Uranus. Compassionate toward the unusual.
-
A true Pisces! Hatched from a cold cold egg!!! lol!
-
Yikes, guess you not fond of Pisces then?
-
Realized later what you meant. Soz….Fish from fish eggs….got it lol…
-
-
-
-
And physically, not my type…
-
lol Ubs. Maybe eh? I like “innie” bellybuttons on my man though thank you very much. Must be my Cap Moon, Venus Taurus. Touching tattos and well, ‘fraid they might be messy also. Pure skin. Just give me pure skin…
-
There’s more going on with that navel than meets the eye… I reckon its an appendectomy scar. Regardless, the guy’s doing just fine for his age, I reckon, and he does make damn fine shoes.
LOVE a Tattooed man! I think it’s a Capricorn fetish (as in – would NEVER ink myself but happy to gaze upon them on bedfellows). The Virgo in me simply insists that they are GOOD tattoos, clever, neat and tasteful. -
Well Lex, the Pisces had had an emer appendectomy thus his loss of button.
Agree he does look fab for his age fit wise but all those tatts and the earrings a hot mess to me.
-
Too many tatts and it reminds me of my daughter when she was a teen and plastered her car with ton of bumper stickers. Must one wear their beliefs on their body? Why not just be it instead?
-
-
-
Outies are an Aries thing?
Really??-
I just made that up! Am Aries and Dad and Sis are Aries. All innies…lol
-
You know I gotta talk some trash and have not even had any beloved cab.
-
-
Or emerging like an inversion of the Venus from the clam shell… from the toilet instead… Darling George Michael might approve?
-

I used to identify with MJ back when I was fashion obsessed and super self conscious, because I had read an interview in which he described feeling very awkward during high school. He spoke about feeling too short and too pudgy and never fitting in, and I completely vibed that at the time. Now he’s gone all diva-tanned-and-buff-and-FIERCE and I’m trying to vibe that sans tanner and weird tats and attention whoring. Will always love the guy, even though I will never be able to afford his garments, simply because of that one interview.
Been talking to Aries man recently, actually. He doesn’t seem like the typical Arien. Very quiet, very mellow. I feel like he has some earth sign somewhere in his chart, maybe Capricorn? I always dig Capricorns. Hmmm. -
And another thing, Alex McQueen would have an anxiety attack if he saw this pic. John Galliano wouldn’t even recognize it as connected with fashion. He’d think it was an ad for toilet cleaner.
-
lol!
-
LOL
reminds me of the coked up bought wives club post line practicing avant garde dance moves frozen in drug high against toilet cubical wall
superstar…..
-
-
He has a Tat of Sponge Bob-Square Pants on his arm…..not very Macho, more like kiddie-land.
-
Part of me says he’s hot. Then another part of me says what grown man would want a spongebob or pokemon tattoo?
-
seriously what is going on? ever since last saturday just a steady stream
of coincidences like non stop, never saw anything like it… almost overload-
whoa… -
maybe the rising from the loo in a multi $$ dress means that no matter where u come from u can rise above it toward the mecca – in a fashion sense?
like ‘i once was down and now am up, and heading up’?
i love the spongebob & the stars … same deal? from the bottom (bikini bottom is where sponge bob lives – in a pineapple no less!) to the stars … i like it. altho i would look completely ridic in that dress because i don’t look anything like a 15 yr old.
-
or maybe it just means that if you want to wear marc jacobs clothing u need to b v thin and this can be achieved by throwing up yr lunch/dinner a lot! hence the loo comes in handy …
-
-
Can’t you people see? She’s a toilet dolly who’s come to life. And in so doing, stepped into her former shrine…
-
venus rising from the sh*t? I’m sure this was supposed to be a profound statement of some sort but she’s so pale I wonder if this was taken in a bulimia recovery facility where really someone walked in on her mid-barf and she quickly stashed it in her purse stretching as if to say, seee…. I DIDN’T do it.
-
I like MJ’s Robert Downey Jnr meets Iggy meets tattooed cartoon HAWTness, but am truly bewildered by the toilet.
-
It’s a baguette.
-
Bidet?
-
-
Ps can anybody tell me how to change my Avatar?
-
I was never a fan of Marc Jacobs (no, not because my sun is in Cancer), but I do respect him for being innovative. Personally, I think that the dress can advertise itself and it doesn’t need his need for attention via foot in lav.
-
i love this tatouages it funnycolor ,I’m frenche
