The most memorable moments at Fashion Week are usually the ones that give us the chills — powerful statements on the runway that come with the perfect song or the general realization that designers are finally casting diverse shows. Given our current political climate, a lot of these standout instances involve industry leaders using the catwalk as a platform. That said, showgoers are also taking a stand by tying on white bandanas or adding Planned Parenthood pins to their looks. Scroll to get a rundown on the list of events that make the Fall 2017 season different from all the rest.

Designers Made Political Statements on the Runway
Candice Huffine led the pack on Prabal's runway.
Jonathan Simkhai distributed "Feminist AF" tees at his runway show. They'll be available for purchase on his website, and he donated $5 per show seat to Planned Parenthood, backing the CFDA's initiative.
The CFDA distributed pink pins that are also spotted all over Fashion Week, on models and showgoers alike.
Christian Siriano's collection was, as always, filled with fancy red carpet gowns, but the crowd cheered the moment they saw this simple tee.
Public School Creative Directors Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne poked fun at Donald Trump's campaign with hats and tees that read "Make America New York" and "We Need Leaders." Models walked down the runway to the song "This Land Is Your Land."
Mara Hoffman began her performance presentation — which involved a runway show and interpretative dance — with a reading by four women. The message was to come together despite our backgrounds and fight for the rights we deserve.

Raf Simons's Calvin Klein Debut Was the Most Anticipated Show
Raf had a wonderful front-row turnout including Sarah Jessica Parker, Anna Wintour, Millie Bobby Brown, A$AP Rocky, Julianne Moore, Naomie Harris, and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Kate Bosworth even created her own t-shirt, affixed with the new Calvin Klein logo.
The Casting Was Diverse
Just like last season, Christian Siriano vowed to keep his runway diverse. Models of all shapes, sizes, and color led the runway, including Alek Wek, who led the finale.
Plus-size model Candice Huffine walked Prabal Gurung's runway. The designer also paid careful attention to diversity when casting, choosing women with different body types and a variety of different ethnic backgrounds.
