(NEW YORK)Marc Jacobs debuts “The Swap”, starring actor Rowan Blanchard and artist and actor Jemima Kirke. “The Swap” is the latest chapter in “Question Marc”, the brand’s storytelling series that bridges fashion, entertainment, and culture, following its debut with the Pre-Fall 2026 campaign, “The Scene”.

Marc Jacobs Introduces - The Swap

Set moments after Marc Jacobs’ latest runway show, The Swap begins with an unexpected Scene Bag exchange that sets the two guests on intersecting paths across New York City. As each uncovers the contents of the other’s bag, assumptions become stories, chance encounters become turning points, and a simple mix-up evolves into an exploration of identity, perception, and the ways we interpret one another. The campaign also features a cameo appearance by playwright and actor Jeremy O. Harris.

Building on the world introduced by “The Scene”, “The Swap” expands “Question Marc” into an evolving storytelling series, with each chapter introducing new characters, perspectives, and cultural moments. While “The Scene” explored the pursuit of visibility, “The Swap” shifts the focus to perception – examining how fashion shapes first impressions and the stories we create about one another. At the center is The Scene Bag, continuing its role as a catalyst that sets each story in motion.

“This project is imaginative, character-driven and fun. That’s what makes it feel so Marc Jacobs – it doesn’t take itself too seriously,” says Rowan Blanchard.

“A woman doesn’t carry her entire life in her bag, only the things she needs on the off chance that something happens. Just in case she falls into a hole, feels inspired or meets the love of her life. And for a New York woman, “just in case” is a regular occurrence. This campaign is a storybook homage to a New York woman and the ways she lives her day-to-day, about two opposite women looking for one another in a massive city. As native New Yorkers, they’re able to find common ground by paying attention to the details,” says Jemima Kirke.

With “Question Marc”, Marc Jacobs continues to build a new creative language where campaigns unfold as chapters, characters move between fashion and culture, and storytelling extends beyond a single launch moment. Additional episodes of “The Swap” will debut throughout the Fall season, continuing the story across social platforms.

NRF Chief Economist weighs in on inflation and its impact on retail

(WASHINGTON) – Inflation is at a 40-year high but isn’t hitting all consumers as hard as top-line numbers might suggest, National Retail Federation (NRF) Chief Economist Jack Kleinhenz said yesterday. Nonetheless, consumer worries about rising prices could become self-fulfilling if workers demand higher wages to compensate and will play a role in the Federal Reserve’s efforts to bring inflation under control. “After decades of relatively low levels, inflation is on everyone’s mind and has been making consumers and businesses miserable as prices have picked up dramatically over the past year,” Kleinhenz said. “However you measure it, inflation has become a powerful force and plays a key role in the nation’s economic outlook.” “While actual price gains are expected to slow down in the coming months as they lap relatively high readings from the year before, the Fed is concerned about the risk of an unwanted jump in inflation expectations,” Kleinhenz said. “If consumers expect rampant i...

The Retailer’s Perspective: It’s Showtime (Again)!

I just got home from the Atlanta Jewelry Show, and thought I’d share some thoughts and discoveries with everyone from the show. Here’s what you missed if you haven’t been to a trade show in a while. First and foremost… They are fun! The really cool thing about a trade show is the interaction with your longtime friends and business associates. I’ve got friends in this business that I’ve known for 43 years. Many of those friends I’ve only seen face-to-face 43 times – always at a trade show . A jewelry trade show is a hands-on experience. Most days I’m at the point that I don’t want to look at another piece of jewelry on a phone or computer screen. I don’t care how many pics you take, and how many angles you shoot it from, you never really capture the essence of the piece. Being real jewelers , we know the only way to evaluate, and assess, a piece’s true quality and workmanship is to hold it in our hands. A jewelry trade show is a full blown, hands-on, experience. We’ve all bought jew...
