As a model, Gigi Hadid has become a bonafide fixture in the world of fashion. Last night, however, the stylishly down-to-earth Hadid marked another dream off of her already enviable bucket list: presenting her first fashion collection at New York Fashion Week. The capsule collection was a collaboration with iconic American designer Tommy Hilfiger, dubbed Tommy x Gigi, which featured impeccably tailored high-waisted trousers, cool cropped bomber jackets, luxe leather leggings, and, of course, a healthy helping of athleisure.

Hadid, who previously modeled some of the nautically inspired creations for the collection's lookbook, opened the show wearing a shrunken sailor jacket, knotted anchor tank, and leather pants before models (including Hailey Baldwin, Taylor Hill, and Chanel Iman) took to the catwalk. In true It Girl style, the must-see moments of the show weren't all relegated to the runway. The fun, fair-style set was filled with friends and family eager to show their support for the model-turned-designer.

Bestie Taylor Swift made her first official post-Hiddleswift appearance in the front row alongside model Martha Hunt, snapping away with her iPhone and grinning from ear to ear. Hadid's mom, Yolanda, and younger brother, Anwar (yes, he's also a model on the make), surrounded her with adorably effusive encouragement, while her boyfriend Zayn Malik went the low-key route with a sweet shoutout on Instagram.

When Gigi Hadid walked the Tom Ford runway on Wednesday, boyfriend Zayn Malik cheered her on from the front row.

Yesterday, while she was getting ready to debut her collaboration with Hilfiger, Malik shared the love — all of Instagram, of course — writing, "Good luck tonight baby. @gigihadid." alongside a black-and-white photo of her from the campaign. Adorable.

Yolanda Hadid couldn't contain her maternal pride. "Show about to start, woohoooo....." she captioned this cute pic of herself with daughter Gigi and son Anwar.

After the show, the proud mama couldn't help but share her praise, posting this pic of the model and designer Tommy Hilfiger with a caption reading, "Congratulations to this magic duo for creating a extraordinary collection together. 30 years of @tommyhilfiger DNA combined with Gigi's style and sense of detail is a recipe for well deserved success. Bravo."

Taylor Swift simply couldn't contain her excitement in the front row. "Clearly all of us were able to remain calm at Gigi's show," she laughingly wrote on Instagram.

Hadid stopped to hug Swift from the runway and her beautiful bestie posted a pic of their embrace with a simple heart emoji.

But after the show, Swift let loose with her praise: "SO PROUD OF YOU GIGI!!!! That show was INSANE. Congrats to Gi, Tommy, and all the girls who just owned that runway!!" she wrote.

Hailey Baldwin, who walked the runway in a bright-red athleisure look, shared a shoutout. "Another great show! Thank you @tommyhilfiger," she posted on Instagram.

And as for Gigi herself, well...it appears she couldn't be more grateful. "I will never be able to fully express my gratitude to you @tommyhilfiger - you are the best design/business mentor I could ever ask for! Thank you for this opportunity. Much love."
