The [Marc Jacobs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joy-artist-capsule) Autumn/Winter 2010 collection offers a mash-up of the American flag. With artwork of artist Jasper John, the line has a recurring star motif in none other than red, white and blue. The collection's apparel range in fabrics, including both cotton and cashmere.

The Marc Jacobs Autumn/Winter 2010 collection uses [quasi-patriotism](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polo-ralph-lauren-x-new-york-yankees-collection) to create these vintage-inspired designs that stamp Jacobs' creations.

**Implications** - Pride for a country is something most can relate to. The simplest way to display this passion is through fashion, but there often isn't much choice other than tourist shirts that aren't for everyone nor stylish. Designers employing patriotic colors with a stylistic flair may give consumers just what they need to display their pride in their country.
