We weren't surprised when we heard Kendall Jenner would be walking in Sherri Hill's Spring 2012 show—after all she's been the face of the brand for almost a year now, (how times flies! *tear*) so we were STOKED when we found out we'd watch her runway modeling debut straight from the second row! We know that Snooki and Selena Gomez are also fans of the designer but we thought, "Who could POSSIBLY love Sherri Hill more than us?!" Well, a lot of people apparently. When we arrived at the Trump Tower last night, it was JAM-PACKED with paparazzi and fans. But we were oddly suspicious—THIS many people are fanatic about women's evening wear? *side eye* And then Kourtney and Kim Kardashian showed up. And then they sat RIGHT in front of us. And her engagement ring reflected so hard under the spotlights that it burned a hole in our retinas and now we're forever broken. Nah, that didn't happen, but YOU GUYS. WE SAT NEXT TO KIM KARDASHIANNNN. We even have a pic to prove it. *composes self* Anywho, let's talk about the FASHION!

OK, we know that Fashion Week is a critical vehicle for designers to showcase their collections for the next season, but Nicki Minaj in all her sartorial zaniness has captured our attention and turned the streets of New York (and the front rows of many a show) into her own personal runway. Whether you're a fan of the Harajuku Barbie's fashion aesthetic or not, you HAVE to admit that each individual getup is ABSOLUTELY fascinating. So to answer all your Nicki-related curiosities, we've aggregated a flipbook with each of her Fashion Week outfits, right down to the nitty, gritty, and even pretty details.

Anna Sui Spring 2012 New York Fashion Week.
Photo: Getty Images

It was a 1940s themed party set in the 1970s at the Anna Sui show for New York Fashion Week. At the top of the runway, models stood in shades of fuchsia and purple light dancing with stars (LITERAL STARS!) while Karen Elson emerged as if from a delicious disco dream, hitting the runway adorned in a PATCHWORK PARADISE of 1940s chic, her strawberry curls bobbing in tandem with her clomping red platforms. Then, something UTTERLY UNPRECEDENTED happened. As Ms. Elson sailed past ardent Sui supporters in the front row like Sofia Coppola, Corinne Bailey Rae, and Kevin Jonas and his wife, Danielle Deleasa, she hit the edge of the runway, paused for a moment, and smiled. Folks, it was as if time itself stopped in static, captivated appreciation at the RARE SIGHTING of a SMILE on the runway in the fashion WILDZ! Yes, Ms. Sui—the reigning fairy godmother of vintage rock and roll fantasia—achieved the impossible for Spring 2012. Not only did she give us a troop of supes like Ms. Elson, Jessica Stam, and Karlie Kloss, she gifted us with a rollicking fun-time parade of Biba-inspired party ensembles we actually want to wear.

You guysssss, is Fashion Week already almost OVER?! It feels like it just started! Dang it. This means the end of huger-than-huge celebs mingling with the commoners (aka us) just for the sake of fashun. I mean, just today we sat behind Kim Kardashian at a show. KIM KARDASHIAN WAS SITTING WITH US LIKE A NORM. *dies* But there are a bajillion other shows that we didn't attend with equally amazing stars in equally amazing ensembles. So, what were some of our favorite celeb outfits over the last couple days? Why, how nice of you to ask! We liked Oh Land's black and white graphic sweater, wide-brimmed hat, black skirt, knee-high socks, and gray suede boots she wore to a Diesel Black show yesterday. In the front row at Tibi, The City's Olivia Palermo matched her bow-tie white blouse and burgundy leather shorts with Emma Roberts' similarly-colored skater dress. (Psst, Nice leopard shoes, Liv!) Today at a Jeremy Scott show, Kat Graham was a VISION in a mesh lightning bolt velour Jeremy Scott dress and furry Gasoline Glamour shoes. She brings a WHOLE new meaning to cat-eye sunglasses, eh? Ehhh? Check out even more uh-mazing celeb outfits at New York Fashion Week in our gigantor photo gallery below!!

Jeremy Scott

It was all about flyover-state style (or is it hayseed chic?) for Jeremy Scott at New York Fashion Week this afternoon. We're talking ENORMO, straight-up TUMBLEWEED-sized bouffants at the crown that ended in little ringlets and smatterings of freckles drawn in at the models' T-zones. Blessedly the glam squad left Andrej Pejic's porcelain complexion unadulterated (seriously, we're talking GLOWING skin that looks like it's comprised of a trillion little LED lights), but even with über-stylized hair and makeup the clothes would not be upstaged. Obviously, since we're talking Jeremy Scott.

Milk Studios was BEYOND bustin' at the seams with sparkly faces. MTV Style favorite Kat Graham was in attendance (wearing the designer and Gasoline Glamour shoes), as was Sky Ferreira, Cory Kennedy (the L.A. set always reps strong at Scott), Paper Mag's Mickey Boardman, Michael Stipe, Leigh Lezark, Ellie Goulding, and, well, basically everyone who you'd expect to be at this show.

SURE, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE FASHION?

When it comes to DRESSES that DOMINATE the red carpet (and we do mean ALL CAPS), the ultra-feminine label Marchesa is what the stylists (and style stars) choose to make a WOW statement. Chances are you've seen Marchesa designers Keren Craig and Georgina Chapman's voluminous confections atop your faves at many an awards show. This is the reason why their New York Fashion Week shows (or presentations as they've done in years past) are always attended by the loveliest of Hollywood butterflies. The Marchesa Spring 2012 runway show saw Emma Roberts, Mandy Moore, and Michelle Trachtenberg arm-in-arm as well as Jessica Szohr, Camilla Belle, and Selita Ebanks on the front row.

Nicki Minaj attending the Carolina Herrera show at New York Fashion Week and a design by SomedayNewYorker.

In light of all the red sole legal drama between Christian Louboutin and Yves Saint Laurent, and the lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit that crops up against Forever 21 for allegedly swiping designs, the lines between what is and isn't considered intellectual property-jacking are hazy and blurry and totally crazy-making. The most recent fashion eyebrow-raise now involves our girl Nicki Minaj, placing the neon pom-pom covered football-pad-style dress she wore to Carolina Herrera's New York Fashion Week show in question.

Diesel Black Gold SS 2012.

Diesel Black Gold certainly knows how to make a statement, and this New York Fashion Week collection took it up a notch by adding bold pops of colorful metallics to its characteristic neutral beige palette—and I can't say I'm mad at it. Green, eggplant, and navy dominated the color spectrum, and this spring you can expect to see a lot of layering for those days when you're not sure if it's going to be 50 degrees or 80.

The overriding silhouettes are clean and structured, with exaggerated collars that harken back to the past, with the off-white color block swing cape + gold mini resembling a badass Jackie O with a dash of dystopian future. Many of the pieces are perfect for transitioning from a day to night look, as most looks included a light jacket. Also, COMPLETELY IN LOVE with the notion of pairing metallics on metallics. Due to the varied textures and the contrast of what's worn underneath...you too can do shine-on-shine without totally looking like an astronaut. In my opinion, TOO MUCH is just enough, and as you can see here, the silver top paired with the fitted purple crop pants is actually working.

(Click HERE for the uncensored version) The men's collection is the perfect introduction to metallics for dudes who maaaaaay not be totally comfortable rockin' reflective surfaces. It takes a certain kind of man to pull off the look, but here you see metallic leather pants paired with darker layers on top to even the still masculine look out. I'm also living for the three-piece suit look sans tie.

There is, however, one problem...and it's a HUGE problem...the footwear. Now, I've always trusted Diesel and I'll continue to trust them, BUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE TEVAS???!!!! In my opinion, there is never (NOR WILL THERE EVER BE) a reason to wear strapped sandals (even with sexy metallic accents) unless you're a middle schooler at summer camp or an adult doing something nature-related, about which I can't even speak to specifics because...no.

Daphne Guinness, Carine Roitfeld, and Jared Leto at the Westway in NYC.
Photo: Courtesy of Terry Richardson's Tumblr

Sweet succotash on a stick, what words could I POSSIBLY conjure to add anything to this photo? Terry Richardson muse, beloved handsome-machine and 30 Seconds To Mars frontGOD Jared Leto is locked in an embrace with non other than former French Vogue EIC, Chanel stylist, and current something-something ambassador/"guest editor" of Barneys New York, Carine Roitfeld. AND not only is the whippet-thin, glamour-puss matching Jared's smoldering gaze to the bajillionth degree, she is also wearing ruched lamé fabric, which kiiiiiinda blows my mind with its retro ballsiness.

And, as if Jared's reliably gravity-defying coif + sleeveless John Lennon-homage "New York" tee wasn't enough FASHUN, we get the added bonus of none other than style icon THEEEEEEEE DAPHNE GUINNESS photo-bombing that ish, positively duh-ripping in bejeweled lace and making a priceless face that does wonders for her whole exotic bird-of-prey steez that she NAILS with majesty every time. Thanks, New York Fashion Week. You make us want to ram a pen in our tear ducts from fatigue but you also make us happy.

Kristin Cavallari, Kim Kardashian, and Katy Perry in Brian Lichtenberg.

On Monday night, I stopped by the Brian Lichtenberg X Greko Sklavounos party at Le Bain, hosted by the stunning Cassie, for the release of their collaborative video installation "Song of the Siren." Brian is an L.A.-based designer who has outfitted EVERYBODY from Shakira to Nicki Minaj, and his extended celeb hit list includes Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Kim Kardashian, M.I.A., Paris Hilton, Kreayshawn, Kristin Cavallari, Nicole Scherzinger, and Ciara, to name a few. Greko, Brian's collaborator, is a director and photographer also based out of Los Angeles whose work has appeared in Dazed & Confused, WWD, and Vogue Hommes Japan.

Brian was gracious enough to take a few minutes to dish about whether he'd be designing maternity wear for Beyoncé , his love of all things fur, and of course Grace Jones (or in this case, Grace "Bones," but more on that later).

I love these two as a couple. What a festive way to celebrate two important events in their life. Mariah looks like a dream.
