It was soon after the doors opened for Christian Siriano‘s fall show, and the runway was already packed. The designer’s show always brings out a crowd of his loyal supporters, genuine in their excitement to cheer on a friend.

Whoopi Goldberg, a requested face in the front row, made her way through the packed room.

Natasha Lyonne, with an arm draped around Uzo Aduba’s shoulder, followed suit. They joined seat mates including Julia Fox, Monica, Leslie Jones, and Willa Ford, who was slated to perform later at the after party and is releasing her second studio album — the follow-up to 2001’s “Willa Was Here” — next month.

Jones, who was famously dressed by Siriano for her first major Hollywood premiere — “Ghostbusters” in 2016 — was in the front row excited “to see beautiful beauty and beautiful clothes,” said the comedic actress. “And celebrate a wonderful designer who is for every woman. I love him.”

During the show, Jones also showed her love for the models, phone camera in hand as she cheered on the various looks strutting past. “Yaaas! Yaaas baby!” she exclaimed as Coco Rocha struck a pose in the finale look, a dramatic ombré bubble gown.

A reminder that, yes, fashion week is also about having fun.
