Fashion news: Marc Jacobs reality show, Pugh designs accessories for Apple, and more

Marc Jacobs is rumoured to have a reality show in the works for gay network Logo.

Last week, a meeting in Washington brought together politicians, designers and lobbyists interested in creating a Fashion Caucus in Congress. Designer Nanette Lepore and Democratic Representative of California Diane Watson were in attendance to discuss fashion business and the need for a stronger presence of government in the industry. The protection of New York’s garment district has inspired the group to host a rally to save the fashion district at 39th and Seventh on October 21 in the hopes that Mayor Bloomberg will listen up and halt his mission to consolidate these coveted spaces into a 280,000-square-foot building.
