Bags and baggage

It's a time of "all change" for one of the biggest gay icons of couture Mr Marc Jacobs (who I sadly neglected to mention was "fabulous at fifty" in April).

No sooner has the dust settled on the news he is to leave the luxury fashion house Louis Vuitton to concentrate on his own eponymous brand, than his latest flame, the - ahem! - hugely talented gay porn star (and house fave here at Dolores Delargo Towers) Mr Harry Louis [Link NSFW] has posted this message on the web:

"I would like to be the first one to share with you all the news... Me and Marc have decided not carry on with our relationship as boyfriends... The distance and lack of time because of work schedules aren't really something realistic, and he's such a beautiful and amazing person, that I think he deserve a bf who will stay at least in one of the cities that he leaves in... Also, I need that too... We love each other very much, and that it was a decision from both!!!! Every special minute we've spent together will be treasured, and a new chapter of our both lives has started... Both of us focusing in work, and make it work!!!! So, for those who were always supportive of us, please don't be sad, live goes on, to all of us... And for those who were praying that this day were coming, there you have... Marc Jacobs and Harry Louis aren't officially a couple anymore!"

In case you are still at a loss about Mr Louis' - star of such titles as Balls to the Wall and After Hours - attractions, you should visit his page on the x-rated Lucas Entertainment website.

As for Louis Vuitton, the announcement of Mr Jacobs' departure was accompanied by a statement that its intention is to concentrate on "high-end" luxury goods - as if it didn't already!

Over at the Dolores Delargo Towers Museum of Camp you can watch Mr Jacobs' final show for LV.

Over here, I've found something sort-of-appropriate for the dual news in Mr Jacobs' life...
