Hot moms officially took over the Marc Jacobs show last night, and they showed up in head-to-toe Marc Jacobs looks. From statement silhouettes and standout prints to unique styling cues, this was a reminder that the brand's biggest fans know exactly how to wear it. To kick off NYFW like this was inspirational, and I now feel motivated to start this season like women who truly get it—rock-star moms who dress for themselves, have fun with fashion, and show up with confidence. The Marc Jacobs collection leaned into that energy, celebrating womanhood through coveted pieces that felt both familiar and exciting with nods to past collections woven throughout. It was a confident, joyful start to the week. Fashion should be fun, and this felt like a reminder of that.
#1: Matching Set
June Ambrose in a leopard-print set was an immediate standout. She turned heads as soon as she arrived, grounding the bold look with her signature—an oversize hat! The icing on the cake was when she realized she was twinning with another rock-star mom in attendance, Monica. (Yes, I fangirled when I saw her.) The moment felt intentional, but it was definitely not. My favorite part is that it all felt so easy, which is proof that statement dressing can still feel effortless when anchored by a strong, cohesive set.

#2: Scarlet Red
Jessica Wang's scarlet-red dress struck the rare balance between camp and sexy, a combination that's not easy to pull off. While the dramatic silhouette did much of the work, it was the color that truly carried the look. A bold red always commands attention, and this one felt confident, intentional, and impossible to ignore. It's the kind of look that immediately sends you back to your closet searching for something equally striking. I know it made me immediately think about how I can incorporate red in my looks for shows this week.

#3: Statement Black Dress
Sai De Silva's black statement dress was understated yet undeniably bold. For New Yorkers, black is nonnegotiable. It's a language I speak fluently, and it's timeless, reliable, and never wrong. This look was a reminder that all black doesn't have to feel simple or predictable. Whether it's volume, embellishment, a conceptual shape, or subtle fur accents, the details make or break the look.

#4: Faux Fur
Dani Stahl's animal-print faux-fur coat is the kind of piece that stops you mid-conversation. Oversize fur is always a yes for me, but the unexpected color in this print made it feel elevated and current. Confession: I am a sucker for a statement coat. When time is tight and you need to get out the house, a statement coat like this is the outfit. Whatever's underneath becomes irrelevant, and the look still reads intentional and fully considered.

#5: Florals
Priya Shukla's floral cropped top and skirt felt like a modern-day Audrey Hepburn moment—classic and polished with a hint of edge to it. The floral accent was a smart way to wear print without letting it take over the look. Finished with leather gloves, strong glam, and—um, hello—that hair, the styling pushed something pretty into sharp, modern territory. It's proof that the right accessories can completely transform a silhouette. We should all take notes from her!
