It seems that when it comes to supermodel spotting, it’s no longer
the catwalk that’s got it down: These days, it’s all about the front
row. It appears that established names have earned the right to enjoy
the view from their seats, and lately, they’ve been taking the
opportunity to experience fashion from the other side. Suki Waterhouse and sister Immy have made the rounds at shows like Sonia Rykiel and H&M, while Liu Wen showed up at Fendi looking sensational. The front row at Givenchy had almost as many models as the catwalk did with Soo Joo Park, Ana Beatriz Barros, and Karen Elson all sporting Tisci gowns.
Taking a break from walking in order to actually view the collections
has become a key way for models to remain in the spotlight without
having to dive into the hustle and bustle of show castings, rehearsals,
and fittings. The collective obsession with who and what models are
wearing has opened the door for their style to be as obsessed over as
any starlet’s—and ditto their cultural sway. Starlets may have snapped
up many a model’s hotly desired ad campaigns, but it looks like they’re
striking back in their own way. Here, a look at the models who have been
sitting pretty during fashion month.
