Fashion may have lost two of its greatest showmen, but Marc Jacobs closed Paris Fashion Week with a thunderous spectacle that suggested happy days are here again. Inspired not so subtly by the sexy thriller The Night Porter, Jacobs sent out one of the season’s best collections, staged against an opulent setting that included an ornate art-deco elevator, six bellhop attendants, and of course, loads and loads of girls. Along with the current cream of the crop, Marc gathered some of the titans of all time, including Carmen Kass, Jourdan Dunn, Amber Valletta, Naomi Campbell, and the glorious Kate Moss. Proving that some things in fashion just don’t age, Kate closed the show, sauntering out in a rubber and lace jacket with hot pants, provocatively puffing on a cigarette.
