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.

“They can smell it”, I bet a major character or two does die. They’re bad at hiding it lol.

I’m so excited yet I’m also really nervous about if any fan favorite characters are going to die I feel like we’re getting really close to actually killing off one of the main cast members or two and I don’t know if I can handle it

I feel like no one is safe this season on Stranger Things, but mostly it seems like the adults are in most danger. I’m rooting for Steve to survive the whole season, or show even.
