Kate Moss walks for Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis, November 3, 1992Music / Sound of FashionPlaylist: When Marc Jacobs took grunge to the mainstreamHis 1992 collection for Perry Ellis graced Kate Moss, was featured in a Sonic Youth video – and Courtney Love set it on fireShareLink copied ✔️August 26, 2015MusicSound of FashionText Daisy Jones In 1992, the sound and style of grunge truly collided via Marc Jacobs and his seminal SS93 collection for Perry Ellis – the show that promptly got him fired.
