This has a knock-on effect on the , which will now fill the vacant 8pm Monday slot. It’s currently without a venue, as the set for the mainline show is already under construction at Jacobs’ traditional space of New York Armory at 68 Lexington Avenue.

‘Marc and I are extremely sorry for this inconvenience. We just want to have the best show possible and show all the product that our design team has been working on so hard for the last six months,' Jacobs’s business partner, Robert Duffy, told WWD.

‘We completely understand if people have to get on a plane to go to London. We’re not expecting people to change those plans or other plans just for us. We are live-streaming the show. Still, we recognize the significant inconvenience and are very sorry about the situation.’

Marc isn’t the only designer with the New York blues right now. Winter storm Nemo is threatening to put a freeze on the fashion week fun, with eight to 12 inches of snow expected to accumulate on the city’s sidewalks today alone.
