^ I think there are many things that you can accuse this collection of, but being a desperate ploy for attention really isn't one of them. Regardless of how tacky, ugly, or kitschy it is, I think it's pretty plain that Marc did this because he loved it and didn't really care what anyone had to say about it.
As opposed to a lot of the 80's inspired fashion that's been going around lately, I think this was honestly nostalgic.
