It would have been unexpected to see a drag queen sitting front row even just a few years ago, but these days, no respectable fashion week VIP section is complete without at least one queen. The girls are girling for fashion brands worldwide

The winning outfit for sitting front row at the Plaza Hotel, though, was a mini tweed set that matched the uptown mood of the morning. With a blonde wig and a full face beat , she fit right in with the rest of the VIPs without sacrificing her unique style. “I’m doing Symone,” she said. “I don’t ever want to look like I’m ever trying too hard — I want it to feel effortless. I want to try new things, of course, but it always has to feel authentic, like it’s part of my story.

Aquaria is in demand both in and out of drag, and her itinerary for the week was similarly stacked: the Coach show and afterparty, the Opening Ceremony party, plus runways for Maisie Willen, Christian Siriano, Wiederhoeft, and Area. “It’s cramming what we do every day into one week, so this is basically just another day in life,” said CT Hedden, sitting front row at Christian Siriano in a voluminous ruffled gown from the designer paired with a pile of blonde curls. It’s definitely more glam than her usual gender-bending beat: “I’m used to being buck naked,” she laughed.
