The 20-year-old supermodel told [Fashionista](http://fashionista.com/2017/02/bella-hadid-interview) that she’s cried not once, but twice on the runway this season. First, there was Prabal Gurung’s [political finale](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/prabal-gurung-explains-his-nyfw-feminist-finale-975447), where the designer and his models walked out wearing t-shirts printed with feminist and pro-immigrant slogans. “I went out and walked, and right before finale, when Prabal was about to go walk, I saw him tearing up and I just started crying because it was such a beautiful, moving show,” Hadid said. “Everybody in the audience was crying during the finale; it was really, really powerful and I’m really proud of him. It was incredible.” The second time was Oscar de la Renta, which [also included pro-immigration themes](http://nymag.com/thecut/2017/02/monse-oscar-de-la-renta-fall-2017-new-york-fashion-week-show.html). Hadid closed the show wearing one of the design house’s classic black evening gowns. “I mean, literally, I also cried! I don’t know if it’s just a very emotional week, but that show has always been something really big to me,” she said. “It’s such an iconic brand and I’ve always looked up to the designers.” \[H/T [Fashionista](http://fashionista.com/2017/02/bella-hadid-interview)\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4672095/bella-hadid-cries-new-york-fashion-week/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4672095/bella-hadid-cries-new-york-fashion-week/"},"headline":"Bella Hadid Gets Emotional During New York Fashion Week","datePublished":"2017-02-15T19:30:10.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:04:49.843Z","description":"'I've always looked up to the designers'","url":"https://time.com/4672095/bella-hadid-cries-new-york-fashion-week/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt425b96b6b60b2566/6988ba7bf887dc0075e9915d/bella-hadid-oscar-de-la-renta.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Kate Dwyer","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/kate-dwyer/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt425b96b6b60b2566/6988ba7bf887dc0075e9915d/bella-hadid-oscar-de-la-renta.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Oscar De La Renta & Monse - Runway - February 2017 - New York Fashion Week: The Shows","caption":"Oscar De La Renta & Monse - Runway - February 2017 - New York Fashion Week: The Shows","creditText":"Peter White—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4672095/bella-hadid-cries-new-york-fashion-week/","name":"Bella Hadid Gets Emotional During New York Fashion Week"}}]}] ```
