Marc Jacobs has made an amazingly cute collection, turning his attention to retro flight attendant uniform for his second line Marc by Marc Jacobs.

I read somewhere a few months ago that Marc had visited Japan and brought lots of Japanese dolly magazines back to the USA for inspiration.

There’s an awesome Japanese doll magazine called Dollybird, and one of last year’s issues of this mag was entirely dedicated to air hostess wear for dolls. It had pictures of uniforms of various airlines, from different years, and for all kinds of dolls. It even included patterns for Blythe and some other Japanese dollies. So my guess is that Dollybird was probably one of the main sources of inspiration for Marc.

The new collection by Marc Jacobs had all that it takes to get an entry ticket into our Wacky Fashion section: asymmetrical cuts, party hats, hats shaped like large bows or bitten apples, necklaces shaped like giant bees, clutches with enormous fringe, clutches decorated with frogs, colorblock patterns looking like underwear, shoe heels parallel to the floor. Not to mention that the crazy collection was shown backward, in the beginning Marc walked out of the set to bow, then the models appeared showing off the looks from the last one to the first one.

The best, wackiest and the cutest item of the entire fashion week has to be his see through tote bag with a smaller clutch bag attached to its side like an applique. Just look at it and admire. It’s perfect!

Anna Sui makes another cute and dressy collection: sequins, bold prints and neon colors (especially a lot of bright pink) are just yummy. Her sheer and shimmery pink socks and clear shoes with butterflies are my personal kawaii favorites.

Michael Kors has a wicked sense of humour offering hats with enormous brims for girls, which are actually great… and tie dye pants for guys, which frankly fit better into our wacky fashion section. I wouldn’t recommend wearing them in real life

The best show of the week so far has to be Ralf Lauren. The designer celebrated his 40th anniversary in business with an incredible showcase of 72 styles. Some of them even remind me of Japanese Gothic Lolitas!

Here are the highlights:

I’m pretty happy to see that coral (one of my favorite colors, which looks so well on me) is going to be very trendy for the summer.

Fashionably Cute is going to cover the entire New York Fashion Week, ready to wear Spring-Summer 2008. Here are the cutest highlights of the first day.

Accentuated waists. Thank goodness the dreaded ugly “maternity” dresses are a thing of the past. It’s trendy to wear a belt where the waist is supposed to be.
