In a new interview with Garage MagazineMarc Jacobs gives a preview of what we'll be seeing on the runway in a few weeks and how his musical tastes have changed...Never boring, MJ! 

Sorry, Britney: “These days I’m very happy listening to just classical music. I’m not that into popular music, as I was once upon a time."

Marc's vision:  “I’d be really happy if people believed they were in their own movie and dressed the part. I love it when you see a woman like L’Wren Scott or Rachel [Feinstein]. It’s fantastic when people wardrobe themselves and express themselves that way.”

Duffy's words of wisdom: “There is all this pressure to start earlier so that we will finish earlier, but my partner Robert Duffy says, ‘Please don’t start early, because the earlier you start the more we throw away.’”

Finishing A Collection: “It’s never perfect, built it’s as good as I could get within the time. I let it go, and I’m okay with what I’ve let go of…. Perfection is a sin."

Sneak Peek?: “After last season, when everything was wrapped and layered, I’m thinking, how am I going to make this sexier?”
