Marc Jacobs to Relocate European Headquarters From Paris to London

Marc Jacobs has built an empire on fashion that keeps the world waiting in awe of what the designer will show next. Marc Jacobs International is a design house that creates men’s and women’s apparel collections (under the Marc Jacobs Collection and Marc by Marc Jacobs names) and a children’s line under the Little Marc label. And now, it’s on the move. 

Currently, the European team and showroom for Marc Jacobs International (part of the stable of brands held by French luxury firm LVMH), even though incorporated in the U.S., are based in Paris, but due to a growing emphasis on the U.K. business and retail expansion plans there, the company plans to relocate its European offices to London this year.

“As our business in the U.K. continues to strengthen, plans are in place to expand our retail presence in the region and build our European team in London,” a Marc Jacobs spokesman said. Jacobs’ collection launched in 1994 and the business has encompassed ready-to-wear, footwear, handbags, sunglasses, timepieces, fragrances, cosmetics, and even books.
