Why are the weather gods doing this to us?!?

New York Fashion Week has it's first Snowpocalypse casualty: Marc Jacobs!

The designer was forced to cancel Monday's show because bags, shoes and fabric couldn't be delivered or get through customs.

Wah wah!

Instead MJ's Marc by Marc Jacobs collection will take its spot on Monday and the original Marc Jacobs show is rescheduled for Thursday the 14th.

Marc's business partner and company president Robert Duffy said they understand people have to go to London, and they’re not expecting people’s plans to change, but want to put on the best show they can.

Hopefully this storm doesn’t affect other shows as well, because the schedule could get messy!

Maybe it wasn't all bliss after all!

Marc Jacobs CEO Robert Duffy is so totally done with his husband Alex Cespedes!

The couple has been married for two years, and have a daughter, named Victoria.

But, don’t worry, he seems to be doing well.

Duffy said in an interview:

"I'm getting a divorce. You're the first journalist I've told. You can tell everyone I'm very happy. My daughter and I — we're doing good."

Well at least it’s a move that is making him happy, and his little girl is too!

Happiness is what really matters!

The Christian Dior job offer caused all sorts of dramz for Marc Jacobs and his business partner Robert Duffy.

In an interview with Port magazine, Duffy revealed that while the two didn't come to blows, they did get in a big fight over whether or not Marc should take over John Galliano's job.

Don't you dare call Marc Jacobs fat, especially a fat heroin addict!

The fashion designer wants Robert Duffy everyone to know he was toes skinny while shooting up dope and only packed on the pounds AFTER he quit.

MJ told Germany's Interview magazine:

"That was the stupidest thing I ever heard. Because first of all I was never a fat heroin addict, I was a skinny heroin addict - and I got over that luckily. I was fat when I stopped doing drugs, not while I was doing drugs. I don't know anyone who's fat when they're doing drugs."

We got it Marc. You were never a fat heroin addict! Thanks for clarifying!

On June 7, amfAR's NYC Inspiration Gala will be honoring Robert Duffy, Marc Jacobs International, and Fergie for their philanthropic vision and dedication.

Sponsored by MAC Viva Glam, Piaget, Hugo Boss, and B&B Italia, the event is set to showcase an Olympic-themed men's runway show to celebrate the commitment of charity.

Robert Duffy definitely seems to be looking forward to the occasion. The president of Marc Jacobs International says of the work he's being honored for:

And it's quite douchey.

Marc Jacobs didn't waste any time responding to claims that he didn't pay model Hailey Hasbrook after some 30+ hours of work as a look model.

Good news for Robert Duffy!

The president of Marc Jacobs has revolved the sexual harassment suit brought on by the company's ex-COO Patrice Lataillade.

In case you forgot, Lataillade said he was fired last September after complaining about Duffy's sexual misconduct in the workplace, which included naked photo shoots and pole dancing.

LVMH denied the COO's claims and promised to vigorously defend the case in court, but it looks like that won't be necessary now.

As of last week the case was officially closed with a rep for LVMH saying the lawsuit was "resolved to the satisfaction of both parties".
