Marc Jacobs, Kate Moss Finally Address Basic Bitches

New Instagram user Marc Jacobs is taking to the platform like a duck to a Sisyphean pool that infinitely reflects his own image. It’s hard to believe that once upon a time (February 2015) the designer was a proud social-media holdout, telling Suzy Menkes, “I am so appalled by the whole social media thing.” Ever since joining up, though, he has blossomed, posting fun Throwback Thursday shots, a group selfie with Phoebe Philo and a confused Karl Lagerfeld, and the requisite In-N-Out burger documentation. He reached his zenith, though, with a video he and Kate Moss made last night, where they re-created Lohanthony’s basic-bitches meme from 2012. (“Kate’s idea.”)

The teen sensation reacted in typically low-key fashion, tweeting, “WHEN KATE MOSS AND MARC JACOBS MAKE AN INSTAGRAM VIDEO DOING YOUR LEG SPIN WHILE CALLING OUT ALL THE BASIC BITCHES. CASUAL.”
