"I think of many people and no one as a muse. I love the way Sofia looks always, and I love the way Kim looks always. Fashion may be part of their world, but it's not their whole life. It's not everything"
About this Quote
Then he pivots to the risky part: "I love the way Sofia looks always... Kim... always". Its a love letter to image, and Jacobs doesnt pretend otherwise. But the repetition of "always" reads less like lust than like loyalty: a statement that style can be a consistent, lived-in identity, not just a red-carpet costume. Naming Sofia Coppola and Kim Gordon matters. Both are famous, but not famous for being fashion plates; they carry auteur credibility and subcultural authority. That lets Jacobs praise their looks while framing it as an admiration for a whole person whose taste is anchored in real work.
The final lines are the tell: hes positioning himself against fashions totalizing impulse. In a business that often treats clothes as destiny, Jacobs is insisting on proportion. Fashion is "part of their world" but not "their whole life" - a boundary that flatters his subjects and, just as importantly, flatters his brand of cool: the kind that looks effortless because it has something else going on.
