[Marc Jacobs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam) introduces the ‘Joy’ artist capsule for Fall 2025 with collaborations from David Shrigley, Derrick Adams, and Hattie Stewart. Each artist applies their signature style to Marc Jacobs icons: Shrigley’s satirical graphics, Adams’ bold geometry, and Stewart’s playful florals and surreal characters. The designs appear across apparel, handbags, and small accessories, highlighting the adaptability of the brand’s silhouettes.

The collection also expands through partnerships with global names including Converse, SHUT skateboards, Crayola, [Moleskine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moleskine-1), Maxbone, Gibson, Barbie, and [Brompton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-commuter-bike). These releases extend the reach of the capsule into footwear, stationery, toys, instruments, and lifestyle products. Launch events include installations and pop-ups staged in New York, Paris, Tokyo, and London, presenting the collection as a large-scale showcase of wearable art. The ‘Joy’ artist capsule positions Marc Jacobs’ Fall 2025 season around collaboration, creative diversity, and cross-industry visibility.
