As a designer who paved his own way, Marc Jacobs<\/a><\/strong> is making history yet against as MTV’s first-ever Fashion Vanguard Award winner. <\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the famed fashion mogul’s eponymous brand announced the newly minted honor. “@TheMarcJacobs will receive @MTV’s first-ever Fashion Vanguard Award this August,” an Instagram post read. According to Vogue<\/em>, <\/p>\n

The award is a fitting one for Jacobs considering his clothes reflected the MTV generation in the ’90s and he even emblazoned sweaters in his resort 2017 collection with the channel’s iconic logo. <\/p>\n

“MTV always had the coolest graphics,” he told Vogue<\/a><\/em>. “It was very spot-on for what MTV was saying and who they were saying it to. It really spoke to me, and I think that generation of people at that time. I’ve maintained them in my memory bank, and they’ve never gone away. They’re iconic.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Equally iconic was Jacobs’ sartorial impact on the industry at the time: his infamous grunge-inspired Perry Ellis spring 1993 collection. <\/p>\n

“I think the alternative or indie and grunge scene was happening, and then there was also something going on in the modeling world, which of course I was very attached to and aware of,” he recalled to Vogue<\/em>. “There was this new, maybe just under-the-radar way of looking at people or young people whose beauty was not conventional. It was a combination of all those things, and I really authentically felt something different was happening and something new was happening. It was also seductive, and I couldn’t resist any part of it.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Decades later, his influence on the industry that helped make him a household name remains crystal clear. On the heels of his April wedding<\/a> to longtime love Char Defrancesco<\/strong>, it seems there is much for Jacobs to celebrate this year. <\/p>\n

Congratulations! <\/p>\n

The 2019 MTV Video Music Awards, hosted by Sebastian Maniscalco<\/strong>, will air on MTV on August 26. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
