The man whose own latest accessory is dyed blue hair, Marc Jacobs, took home the "Designer of the Year" award at the 11th Annual ACE Awards in New York on Nov. 5, one of many people honored by the Accessories Council this year for their achievements in the world of accessories.
Jacobs, whose shoes and handbags for both his signature collection and his younger Marc by Marc Jacobs brand are highly sought after items, also designs accessories for one of the most recognizable luxury brands in the world, Louis Vuitton, which he reinvents season after season. His latest collection, shown on the runways in Paris in October, featured a collaboration with artist Richard Prince.
Other winners included Mandy Moore for "Fashion Innovator" (really?), and Heidi Klum for "Fashion Influencer". Is that even a word? Heidi is pushing her new jewelery line, which she's going to wear on "Project Runway" this season. These awards are so arbitrary. And I know some of you twigs are like, stop bitching and go to the gym. And my reply is - who has time? I gotta write and bitch about people and I like food too much. Damn. Have you ever had a Ring Ding? They're like hockey pucks of chocolate happiness. Don't judge!
