Sorry to spoil it for you, but the answer is "no." You can actually buy a Marc Jacobs-branded condom for $1.50, but regardless?this $2 "Mexican Woven Hat" is a pretty shocking item to find laying about MJ's Marc by Marc Jacobs Womenswear store on Bleecker Street.

For that whole $2, you get exactly what it says: a woven hat. There are no MJ tags on it, no fancy labels and no box as far as we could tell. On the other hand, if you're shopping in the West Village on a blistering hot and sunny day and you can feel your scalp getting sunburned on your hair part, then this is a pretty good steal. We only hope you're down with the plastic flowers.
