When Spring/Summer 2008 Fashion Week concluded in New York City, the Marc Jacobs show had attendees scratching their heads.
The event started a few hours late, which already head people irritated. Then when the show began, no one quite knew what was going on. It began backwards with the models coming onto the stage and waving to the crowd, like they usually would to end a show.
When the real show actually started, things got weird. The models had ratty hair and unusual things on their heads. The clothing was worn backward and hanging off. And the shoes … well the shoes had the heels in the middle of the ball of the foot, rather than at the heel.
To say the show was different would be an understatement. Though many thought Marc looked like a genius, while others felt the whole show was just a little too much.

Vera Wang Collection
Another designer that made heads turn in NYC was Vera Wang. Her collections are normally some of the most sophisticated and well received at these type of events.
Though the flowing silky fabrics of many of her dresses were beautiful, several people thought there were too many dark colors for spring. Others believed she was trying too hard to be a little “edgy” and should have just stuck with more classic styles.
