" Deep into some research this morning (for a piece you can check out on tomorrow&amp;#039;s Tuesday Essential), I unearthed this jewel: Charlie Rose interviewing Marc Jacobs in 1997. At 18 minutes, it&amp;#039;s rather long, but also rather intriguing. It&amp;#039;s Marc before he got fat and then got skinny again\u2013he&amp;#039;s not quite as tan and toned as he is now, but he resembles his current self more than the pasty/chubby/bespectacled phase (which, I&amp;#039;ll admit, was my favorite Marc phase). The interview takes place as Jacobs is designing the first-ever Louis Vuitton ready-to-wear collection, which he calls &amp;quot;a little bit of a funny assignment.&amp;quot; Rose asks, via a New Yorker article, &amp;quot;Can Marc Jacobs make Louis Vuitton hip?&amp;quot; Jacobs, all self-deprecating giggles, responds, &amp;quot;Well, I&amp;#039;ll give it a try!&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
