Over the past 75 years, fashion shows have evolved from intimate presentations to global spectacles. Vogue takes a look at the rich history of fashion’s illustrious front row. Dior’s 1950s “New Look” revolutionized femininity, while the ’60s embraced individual freedom and exclusivity. The ’70s introduced cultural influencers and turned shows into entertainment, paving the way for the extravagant glamour of the ’80s. By the ’90s, mainstream appeal dominated, and the 2000s saw celebrities strategically claim the front row. The rise of influencers in the 2010s, fueled by social media, democratized access to Fashion Week. Even as the pandemic briefly halted live shows, the industry adapted and returned. Today, the front row itself has become part of the spectacle with celebrities like Kylie Jenner wearing the same outfit we also see on the runway.

You are truly painting, a master piece is created with every inch being created deliberately, and even the smallest part must be intentional, and can stand alone as a good decision or the best mistake!

Fun fact: Joaquin phoenix initially wanted to do the joker makeup himself but ended up going with a makeup team. One of the Oscar nominations Joker got was Best Makeup and Hairstyling.
