Iconic American fashion designer Marc Jacobs is the subject of a retrospective show in Aoyama. The free exhibit features 21 looks from past runway shows as well as a selection of photographs by Juergen Teller. German lensman Teller is noted for his raw overexposed style and has shot numerous spreads for Jacobs—including collaborations with Cyndi Sherman and Michael Stipe among others. Jacobs himself is perhaps the most influential designer of his era, not only for his own eponymous line but as the creative director for French design house Louis Vuitton since 1997.
