Marc Jacobs: Christian Dior design job “would be a very hard thing to turn down”

In an exclusive interview with CNN National Correspondent Alina Cho, fashion icon Marc Jacobs speaks for the first time on the rumors that he’s in line to be the next designer for Christian Dior.

Marc Jacobs says, “It would be an honor. I mean, there’s no question that the two great couture houses in Paris are Chanel and Dior. I think it would be a very hard thing to turn down.”

Cho also gets Jacobs to dish on his career, New York Fashion Week and why he’s moved on from kilts to Prada pencil skirts.

CNN special Fashion: Backstage Pass with Alina Cho premieres on Saturday, September 17th at 2:30pmET.
