21 Savage is making the rounds at New York Fashion Week with two front-row appearances in one day.
The Atlanta rapper attended Tommy Hilfiger's Spring 2027 show at the Plaza Hotel on Thursday (Sept. 10) before making his way to Public School's SS27 presentation later that day.
Carmelo Anthony joined 21 for both stops. Melo's appearance at the Hilfiger show came as he stars in the designer's latest campaign alongside Travis Kelce, Gigi Hadid, Jisoo, Peggy Gou, and Frances Tiafoe.
The Plaza was packed with celebrities for Hilfiger's presentation. 21 shared the star-studded front row with Camila Cabello, BLACKPINK's Jisoo, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods, Knicks players Josh Hart and Miles McBride, Francisco Lindor and Olympic gold medalist Suni Lee.
Victoria Monét, Coco Jones, Fireboy DML and Cat Burns were among the other musicians in attendance, while Kate Moss was seated alongside Patrick Schwarzenegger and Edward Enninful.
Hadid opened the show wearing oversized red pleated pants with a T-shirt, tan blazer and navy bucket hat. Slayyyter provided a performance before Hilfiger eventually took his own trip down the runway accompanied by a Samoyed.
21 and Anthony then switched locations for Public School's presentation.
The show marked another chapter in Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne's return to New York Fashion Week. The designers brought Public School back to the NYFW runway earlier this year after spending seven years away from the traditional calendar.
Swizz Beatz, Fabolous, Miles Caton and Julez were among the familiar faces who attended the SS27 presentation, with Anthony also linking up with Fabolous backstage.
The pair of appearances adds to 21's growing presence outside of music. In June, he teamed up with Natanael Cano and French Montana for "Three Nations," a World Cup album track inspired by the tournament's three host countries.
21 has also recently spoken about his longtime support for Arsenal, which dates back to his childhood in England.
"I was born in London," he said during an appearance at an Arsenal halftime show. "That's all I know is Arsenal. I've always been an Arsenal supporter my whole life."
New York Fashion Week officially kicked off its Spring/Summer 2027 schedule on Sept. 10, with shows from Diane von Furstenberg, Proenza Schouler, Kallmeyer, Tory Burch and Christian Siriano also on the opening-day calendar.
