  There is a striking contrast between the extremely formal structure of giant Vuitton and Jacobs's extremely laidback attitude. Hired in 1998 confident and media-wary he has invented Vuitton's ready-to-wear line and turned over the world of luxury with limited series of handbags designed by contemporary artists. Marc Jacobs stands at the center of this globalized organization. He is recognized as one of the most potent purveyors of taste and trendsetting. Yet Marc Jacobs neither sketches nor sews. He is no sewing hand he is an eye of fashion. No camera has ever been allowed to film Vuitton's and Jacob's creation process yet the film unravels an economic and artistic system in a lively manner maintaining the accuracy of the facts and the glamour with maximum pleasure for the viewer. The narrative is not only the classical suspense that builds up before a collection it is also a demonstration of a new way to make fashion a very modern mix of chaos and glamour.
