Some Designers Don't Want to Be Facebook Friends With Marc Jacobs

Just because Marc Jacobs is on Facebook, it doesn't mean the rest of the design world has to be. The hugely successful fashion designer has long been blessing us with ever-changing relationship status updates, so we can keep immediate, obsessive tabs on who he may or may not be boffing at the time. It's a public existence! (Or, at least public when people actively go looking for it). And it's one that other fashion designers don't exactly aspire to. The Observer spoke to three colleagues of Jacobs at an event last night, all of whom seem wary of Jacobs' internetting ways.
