Marc Jacobs has not explicitly mentioned it, but he is certain that he questions the fragile and fleeting existence of the images produced to feed social networks, which have become a machine for producing continuous novelty to hold ever more brains. addicted. And, more broadly, on the consumption of clothing in the era of the firepower of ultra fast fashion. With apparel supply and production soaring, attention to creativity, quality and durability of apparel is dropping as fast as prices. Will these three minutes, so brief, relaunch the machine of dreams… and of desirability?
