A man that decides to go out just look at some stores because he's bored and returns with Dolce & Gabbana loafers, Ralph Lauren Karl shoes, and Maison Martin Margieua Paris lace ups. He smiles and replies "I just couldn't stop myself". My long time friend is one of the most interesting men I've ever known; stylish, driven, and most of all self confident. This New Orleans native departed ways with his city at the age of 17 and ventured to the city of LOST ANGELES. After a harsh hurricane he relocated to Los Angeles and finished his senior year of high school at Notre Dame while living with the ever so comical Alfonso Ribeiro(actor popularly known for his role as Carlton of the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air). After graduating high school Marcus began F.I.D.M(The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising) to prosue his fashion dreams.
While school was drawing its exciting end Marcus was nervously wondering what was next to come. Strongly rooted in God he continually stated "He has a plan for me." During fashion week in Los Angeles Marcus attended a fashion show and sat directly across from the world famous Andre Leon Tally. Not able to contain himself he walk across the run way stage and introduced him self; and from there a lasting friendship was born. Texting, emailing, and entertaining each other at events MR. Tally took Marcus under his wing.
Since then Marcus has joined Vogue magazine to be a fashion intern while working for high-end vintage boutique. His name with be featured in the January issue of GQ beside Madeline Weeks for GQ photo spread. Marcus is the true expression of a NEXT GEN KID.
