Marc Jacobs' Crazy Camel Toe Christmas Costume

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

As if Marc Jacobs hadn't given enough reason for the world to label him as eccentric and crazy, the fashion designer showed up dressed as a camel toe at his Christmas party at the Rainbow Room this week.

“I thought it would be completely ironic and funny to be a camel toe,” the designer said.

His costume resembled a huge, beige hoof of a camel, his make-up-laden face smiling cheekily out of the fur. He held a sign to protest one of the biggest female fashion faux pas: No Camel Toes!

He certainly wasn't shy in getting his point across. Jacobs was confident enough to put himself in a position much wore than being the butt of all jokes.
