You Can Do No Wrong.

Marc Jacobs hates being in the public eye. He rarely grants interviews, and when he does agree to talk to reporters, he seems awkward. Awkward, yet likeable. By perfecting a standoffish attitude he's managed to avoid scandal, but this weekend he made it into the gossip pages:

Page Six reports:

MARC Jacobs is a newlywed. The designer and his hot Brazilian love, Lorenzo Martone, were married in a civil solidarity pact Sunday in France. "He's totally excited," said an insider. "He said he's head-over-heels in love with Lorenzo. His life is coming together now." Civil solidarity pacts were instituted in France in 1999, but they are not legally binding. Jacobs isn't taking his honeymoon yet - he's busy with his show for New York Fashion Week in September.

Reps from Louis Vuitton deny the story. But a wedding might be in order; approval ratings for Martone are high. Linkedin claims Lorenzo is an ad exec for Chandelier Creative New York, a company creates marketing for every brand from Old Navy to the W Hotel. I think most people are just excited Jacobs is no longer dating Jason Preston, the hipster who tattooed the MJ logo on his arm.

If they do tie the knot, I hope they wear matching bow-ties again.
