Marc Jacobs’s Wedding Fashion Included Sentimental Penguin Pins, Bespoke Suits and More
Designer Marc Jacobs and his partner Char Defrancesco married in New York City this weekend in a fashion-forward ceremony attended by the likes of Kate Moss, the Hadid Sisters, Naomi Campbell, Justin Theroux and more.
The couple’s high-fashion wedding included hyper-personalized details down to their outfits and accessory choices, including penguin pins comprised of diamonds and onyx by Prada’s lead designer Fabio Zambernardi.
“Penguins have only one partner and mate for life,” Jacobs expressed on Instagram. “A great example of faithfulness and fidelity. So grateful to you and love you so much dear Fabio.”
The couple arrived in a 1962 Rolls Royce Phantom, which set the scene for their dramatic, glitzy evening out in Manhattan. Jacobs dressed in a bespoke blue suit tailored by Huntsman Savile Row. Defrancesco wore a velvet hunter green suit and tie paired with charcoal gray slacks also by the same high-fashion house.
“My suit, shirt and tie cut, overseen and designed with the lovely, incredible Ralph Fitzgerald. Charly’s dinner jacket, trousers and dress shirt also cut, and looked after by Ralph,” Jacobs wrote on social media. “This man has always come thru for us and we love Huntsman. Bespoke sneakers by the incredible @louboutinworld and my boots custom @gucci by the amazing @alessandro_michele.”

The designer proposed in April 2018, in a Chipotle with the help of a flash mob. “It’s his favorite restaurant. We have an annual [tradition],” Jacobs later told WWD of why he chose that franchise in particualr. “Every year for my birthday we go to Chipotle.”
