Marc Jacob 2010

The study of Marc Jacobs, I have concluded the way of its use of colors, which are based on,
1 Monochromatic Color Scheme
2 achromatic color scheme
3Complimentary Color Scheme
4 Analogical color scheme (e.g. Red, Violet, Blue)
The balance of color and the harmony of color are both important to develop the image and aesthetic of the clothes. I also find that the use of color of this brand could be repeatable, about 4 or 5 seasons per cycle, and continuing the current colors into the coming season. For example: The some color families are cycled every four to five years. For instance, the color family of 06 S/S is very close to those in 02’s S/S. Similar phenomenon can be observed between 08 S/S and 03 S/S, too.

The style of its designs is in simple silhouette. In general, not less than 4 different colors can be found on each outfit.Marc Jacobs is an influential brand in fashion world. Its use of color is influenced by the local culture-American or political affair in a certain level. The environments can bring the ideas or the limits to the designer.

Therefore, here are some colors forecast including neutral colors as its color scheme at 2010 season.

Main color: algal green,Snorkel Blue

Monochromatic Color Scheme:
A scheme based on a variety of values, saturations, and temperatures of one hue. Pretty safe, but it can be boring.

Complementary Color Scheme:
There are a wide variety of complementary color schemes, but they all work on choosing one color, and then using its complement, or colors near its comlement, to round out the color scheme. An example might be red with blue green and yellow green. These schemes are easiest to work with when the colors are of similar value.

Analogical color scheme:
A fluidity of monochromatic color is emphasized because using one dominant color with others secondary is in importance. The affect can adopt the color scheme is to give life and energy to the outfits. A combination of hues which are neighbors on a color wheel. For example, purple, blue, and green is an analogous color scheme. Safe, but again can be boring unless values are varied.

Balance of Color:
Marc Jacobs balances the collections by using dark value or dull intensities to avoid boredom and conflict.

Processes of develop color forecast:

When the designer tried to test which color suitable on their design, they would keep on testing different values on different combination.

design ideas came from
-contemporary art.
-his friends.
-history
-style

Americana gives us looks that are clean cut, by utilising stripes, spots and stars. These are given a wide degree of variation when mixed or contrasted in motif size. The ideal place for this look may well be best confined to the political venues of the supporters at presidential elections. This look merges with 'Nautical' when worked in the usual navy, red and white colour scheme.
