Was Marc Jacobs influenced by Scorsese’s Taxi Driver, specifically Jodie Foster’s child prostitute character, for his SS11 collection? Over-sized straw hat with overturned rim? Check. Hotpants? Check. Deep reds and purples? Check. I love it!
I believe you are totally right! Not sure how I feel about that (then again, I’m one of the few people who never really felt right about seeing Lolita as a fashion icon to emulate). Am I just a prude or something?
Jill, I don’t think it has anything to do with being prudish – sexualising young girls is never acceptable! Still, from a purely costume point of view, Foster’s red velvet platforms in Taxi Driver are one of my all time favourite film shoes…
Oh yes! That’s Jodi’s look! Great, I like it!
