The [Marc Jacobs Resort](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam) 2013 collection is the epitome of eccentric elegance. From his fearlessness with patterns to his use of rich colors, the famed designer is proving that style gets better with age.

Taking inspiration from artist Cindy Sherman's clown photo series, Jacobs created a whimsical collection that fails to take itself too seriously. From pattern-clashing pairings and exaggerated accents to a headache-inducing color palette, this ornate collection pays homage to the designer's signature 70s aesthetic.

Whether referencing pop culture iconography or a countryside-chic aesthetic, the Marc Jacobs Resort 2013 collection shines a light on layered patterns, fun florals and over-the-top silhouettes paired with winning accessory pieces that include chunky platforms as well as practical bags.
