The scene at Marc Jacob's after party. |
| Marc Jacobs, the sort of enfant terrible of contemporary American fashion, held a triumphant show of his fall collection Friday night at the 26th Street Armory with the likes of Kevin Federline and Victoria Beckham in the packed house and Sonic Youth peroforming a rock concert on stage. So that when it came to the after party, everyone was ready to celebrate. |
