Looks from Marc Jacobs' spring collection. Photos: Imaxtree

Things that happened at Marc Jacobs’ spring show last night:

1. It started two minutes early, at 8:28PM, and lasted 7 minutes. So when Courtney Love showed up at 8:47PM, there wasn’t a sequin in sight.

2. Only one Fanning sat front row, Dakota, but she was accompanied by Sofia Coppola and Kim Gordon. Also, Michael Pitt crawled up to the top of the stands to watch his girlfriend, Jamie Bochert, walk the show.

3. When the show did start, a thick gold curtain slowly opened to reveal the models draped across seats a la A Chorus Line. Like last spring’s show, all the looks were immediately revealed.

4. Marc sat behind his girls, to the left, and counted out the beat as they rose one by one to walk the wooden runway.

5. Each model walked just once, with no finale. There were beaded dresses, plastic wrapped skirts, thigh high stockings, silver jackets, seafoam green sweatshirts and ladylike suits. Metallic Mary Janes were cute, though the bags weren’t the best we’ve seen from Marc.

6. Marc Jacobs took a bow in what looked like Hard Tail pants.

7. The Dior gossip immediately commenced. Jacobs’ collection was elegant, detailed and, despite the dance-hall stage, sometimes French. 

Next stop, couture?
