Goths Went to the Beach at Marc Jacobs Spring 2014

Marc Jacobs is pretty good at subverting expectations, but he might have outdone himself with the Marc Jacobs Spring 2014 show. He lead everyone into a cavernous (and sweltering) beach scene, and then instead of showing the deconstructed swimwear the scene seemed to imply, we got tapestry, tassels and high-neck lace dresses. The only thing the runway was missing was a Victorian-style, full-coverage swimsuit. Maybe next year.

With the intricate, heavy, surprising feel of the clothes, accessories naturally took a backseat to everything else going on. The bags, mostly long-strapped shoulder bags, were flargely ashioned out of the same textiles as the clothes, right down to the drapery-reminiscent tasseled trim. There were also a couple of crocodile options, which is fairly new territory for Jacobs’ eponymous brand. Surely, though, he’s had plenty of experience with the exotic material at his other gig – Louis Vuitton.

Below, check out our photos from inside the show.
