Is there anything she can’t do?

Serena Williams’ Signature Statement Collection debuted on day six of New York Fashion Week, and it was surprisingly good.

Supported in the front row by Vogue’s Anna Wintour (a daily tennis player), recent U.S. Open competitor (and friend) Caroline Wozniacki, Marlon Wayans and more, this 18-time Grand Slam tennis singles champion showed she can be a fashion contender.

The collection, which is already available on HSN, was filled with wearable pieces like faux textured leather leggings and kicky little skirts, great moto jackets and vests, and shaped knit shirts we will all want to wear.

Serena isn’t the only sporty one on the runways. Even the glamorous Naeem Khan flirted with casual, showing track pants, pullovers and a pair of mini-shorts, all with his signature spangle. Khan’s gowns, particularly the gold tulle mermaid sheath, and striped ball skirts, proved why Khan is the king.

“The colors are vibrant: yellows, reds, pinks,” Khan told the Daily News. “My kelly green was inspired by Rita Hayworth. That was her favorite color. Yasmin Aga Khan recently said to me, ‘Kelly green, my mother loved it.’ I think it signifies spring.”

Marc by Marc Jacobs designers Luella Bartley and Katie Hillier were mixing it up. Long with short, bralettes over shirts, sweatshirt jersey with crinolines — it seemed to be about switching it up, any which way you can. The models, many in rain boots and latex arm warmers, were ready for anything, from a marathon to a sprint to dinner.

Jenna Lyons’ J. Crew was in party mode. While the collection had easy and wearable ­Bermuda shorts, denim tunics and ­effortless chambray, it was the glitz that got the room talking. It was mellow yellow for the win, ­particularly a sparkling white and yellow embroidered tunic dress, and shorts of the same fabric paired with a T-shirt and denim jacket.

Vera Wang took this season to decorate it and then let it come apart — from the backdrop greenery painted black to her models’ ghoulish, smudgy eyes. Vera’s come undone, which in this case is good, with pleated and shredded crepe and tulle, unraveling passementerie and exposed underskirts.

Printed leather pants in a basket-weave print stood out at Tory Burch. Inspired by Francoise Gilot, Picasso’s longtime lover, and their time in France, she presented a mixed bag of textured raffia tweeds, jacquard knits, crochet, burlap and fringe.

Jenny Packham’s full-on love letter to Marilyn Monroe was predictable — so many pretty, sparkly, body-hugging dresses. We’re sure the newly pregnant duchess of Cambridge will be left wanting for a roomier silhouette. Her loss is our gain.

And Badgley Mischka came full circle for its 25th-anniversary show. “I walked in James and Mark’s very first show,” said supermodel Naomi Campbell. “We’ve come a long way.”
