World-renowned fashion designer Marc Jacobs will receive the first-ever “MTV Fashion Trailblazer Award” at the 2019 VMAs. The new award will honor a fashion designer who has made an indelible impact within the world of music-artist fashion. He’s also cooking up an extravagant multimedia activation set to graze the red carpet preceding the awards ceremony. The on-the-ground experience will have a dedicated photographer and highly-stylized elements designed to travel across social platforms. We’re excited to see this first-hand.
Jacobs has been inextricably woven in fashion and music. He’s styled the caliber top of artists such as Lady Gaga, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. Even tapping Cher and Missy Elliott for his ad campaigns. Super hot artist Lizzo wore his Met Gala cape on the carpet and to the airport the morning after– she loved it so much she wasn’t taking it off.
Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco will host the 2019 VMAs. Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift lead the pack with most nominations. But who will win the prestigious “Video Of The Year” award? The VMAs will air globally on MTV Monday, August 26th at 8 pm ET/7 pm CT. Stay right here, stay mixed in for our exclusive coverage of the VMAs for more.
