Before the lights on the catwalks come on, the front rows catalyze flashes and social media feeds. Because it is there, between a spectacular entrance and a smile behind diva glasses, that fashion takes a second form. In a magical space where trends, personalities and storytelling intertwine in real time. And where celebrities don’t just attend the show, but amplify it and make it memorable.

The mood? Rebellious spirit and self-confident femininity, interpreted with personal ease. A wardrobe that seems to come out of a film set between the Upper East Side and western prairies, but with a contemporary filter. Replicated in front row.
