The show must go on.
New York Fashion Week saw surprise guests when PETA protestors crashed the Coach runway on Thursday, carrying signs that read “Leather Kills” and wearing bodysuits that resembled human muscles and bone.
The demonstrators walked in line with the rest of the models in front of major celebrities who were present to view the collection.
Jennifer Lopez and Vogue editor Anna Wintour were sitting in the front row for the show and video posted to social media showed the pair among those watching the protestors’ unexpected appearance.
In one Instagram clip, a security guard was seen apprehending one demonstrator as they reached the end of the runway and the moment caused an uproar in the comment section from those who thought the response was over the top.
