On Wednesday, Kanye West presented the highly anticipated Yeezy Season 2 line, dropping more nude bodysuits and a new song. The front row was appropriately star-studded: Kim Kardashian, Anna Wintour, and Riccardo Tisci all sat front-and-center; along with, of course, North West, who was apparently plied with candy to help prevent a second meltdown.

Noticeably absent from the front row was Kanye’s sister-in-law, Kendall Jenner, who took one for the team and sat in the second row behind her older sisters, presumably so there could be a spot for Seth Meyers.
