In the spirit of New York Fashion Week, Swagger New York collaborated with designer Michele Moricci to revive [beloved 90s cartoon character outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kenny-scharf-and-axel) with a fashionable twist.

The series depicts iconic cartoons like Daria, [Sailor Moon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmy-choo-x-sailor-moon) and [Lisa Simpson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-simpsons-x-family-mart) and envisions them as long-legged attendants to this stylish event. The characters are decked out in extremely chic designer fashions from the Fall/Winter 2013 season. Each outfit is perfectly suited to each character and speaks to their personal style.

Even Beavis and Butthead make an appearance in stylish outfits by Jeremy Scott, although the artist remarks that they "were kicked out of Jeremy Scott for crashing the catwalk mid-show," this would be an understandable action by the mischievous duo -- they are certainly stylish enough to compete for attention on the catwalk.
