While we love the clothing, models, and new trends that emerge during Fashion Week, one of our favorite parts of the show takes place just beyond the runway: the front row. The coveted seating section is home to the best of the best, from A-list celebrities like Penelope Cruz and all-around it-girl Olivia Palermo to fashion stalwarts like Naomi Campbell.

And then, of course, there's the wow-worthy fashion. From sexy metallic ensembles to edgy pantsuits, front row-style is versatile and can be unpredictable, but always leaves us in awe.
