We have come to expect from our front rows at fashion week a certain amount of celebrity presence. The presence of these models, singers, actresses and it-girls are certain to bring publicity to the designer even when the collection doesn’t.

It was therefore perhaps a very brave choice for designer Marc Jacobs to ban the presence of celebrities at his show. The designer whose name is synonymous with celebrity following from Madonna to Victoria Beckham appears to have made a great decision with his collection being hailed a beautiful success.

Elsewhere in and around Bryant Park the celebrity presence has been strong. The likes of Kelly Osbourne, Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker, Agyness Deyn and many more taking in the shows.
