Since the Second City Style crew are pretty much veterans at New York Fashion Week by this point, we’ve come to expect a round of B-listers, reality stars and model/socialites who think they’re famous in the front row. Still, we can’t help but get excited when we spot fierce fashionistas like Kelly Rowland, Rita Ora, Hailee Steinfeld, Emmy Rossum, and yes, Anna Kendrick, who surprised us a bit this season by showing up at not one but at least four fashion shows. And she was dressed to kill!
Here are some of the best dressed stars from our seats at DKNY, Monique Lhuillier, and more.
Kelly Rowland at HoughtonJulie Restoin Roitfeld and Carine Roitfeld at Altuzarra
Black is the new black and Carine Roitfeld and her daughter Julie Restoin-Roitfeld may just be the new Anna Wintour and Bee Shaffer of New York Fashion Week.
Hailee Steinfeld at Prabal Gurung
After countless appearances at NYFW shows, Hailee Steinfeld proves she has style. Still, I don’t have many good things to say about this strange Prabal Gurung mismatched print mix.
Emmy Rossum at Yigal Azrouel
I’m in love with Emmy Rossum with dark earthy makeup and her hair down!
Bella Thorne at Lacoste
The new Disney “IT” girls Zendaya and Bella Thorne made quite the rounds at NYFW this season.
Coco Rocha at BCBG Max AzriaZoe Kravitz at Alexander WangZendaya at DKNYVictoria Justice at DKNYRita Ora at DKNY
I feel like even though Rita Ora has become HUGE, as big as Chanel at Paris Fashion Week, she still makes time for womanly Donna Karan and girly Material Girl labels.
Olivia Palermo at TibiKatie Holmes at Donna Karan
Love seeing Katie Holmes at Donna Karan but divorce seems to have aged her!
Joe Jonas and Blanda Eggenschwiler at Opening Ceremony
Joe Jonas is the new NYMag fashion expert, showing up at Richard Chai, Opening Ceremony and more. How do you guys feel about this?
Kelly Rowland at Opening Ceremony
I much prefer Kelly Rowland in a big, bold print!

So far, some of the biggest celeb front row group appearances include Rebecca Minkoff and Monique Lhuillier, but hey, Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren haven’t happened YET!
