Mark Dzhejkobs was born in 1963 in New York, Parsons has ended the well-known school. In 1986 has let out the first big collection, and in 1989 it and its partner Robert Daffi (their company was called «Jacobs Duffy Designs») have passed to work in a large firm «Perry Ellis» where began to be engaged in creation of female lines of clothes. In 1993 Mark Dzhejkobs the first has deduced on a podium style granzh. Models have been dressed in huge shirts from a flannel, the extended sweaters and massive army boots, and all it in a combination to thin dresses in a floret, stylised under second-hand articles from a flea market. The collection has made sensation, but clients of firm refused to pay in 1,5 thousand dollars for an "old" dress.
Therefore since 1993 Mark Dzhejkobs starts to work under own label. The collection «Falling stars» again has drawn 1994 attention of public: brilliant gold skirts; trousers in a combination with red and bright green topami from knifes; T-shorts with sleeves from a sheepskin and tweed jackets with hoods. The sports glamour (a strength of the American school) in daily clothes has received at Dzhakobsa a new life. Mark describes the style as «the simple things executed from magnificent fabrics».
Since 1997 Dzhejkobs does clothes and accessories for the ancient French House Lui Vuittona which glory was made by leather accessories. With Mark's arrival the line of clothes of the House (before playing a supporting role) began to set the fashion in the fashion world though at first its reserved white blouses, long skirts and trousers without pockets and fasteners have been apprehended a little cool. Having decorated with logos LV not only bags, but also fabrics, Mark initiated new boom logomanii (similar was not about 80th). Collections Dzhejkobsa for House Lui Vuittona is a comfort (direct skirts, blouses-shirts, the trousers of a pipe executed from modern materials), nervous elegance (narrow, but a mobile silhouette) and image of known mark (large drawings, frequent use of a logo, the courageous details stopping attention, — cuts, fasteners, accessories).
Addressing to experience of last decades, the designer never uses direct citations. While others searched for original things of that time on shops, Dzhejkobs has invited Stephen Sprauza (creating clothes of 80th) which has decorated a fabric graffiti. So ideas of the past have refracted through a prism soyovremennosti.
