A whole lot happened during NYFW this past weekend, and Fashion Week isn't even close to over yet!

There was a prankster who stormed Prabal Gurung's show Saturday afternoon, streaking on the runway until he was escorted out by security, and there was an actual chocolate syrup-covered wall at the Opening Ceremony show (no, not that Opening Ceremony).

Then there was Alexander Wang's much-talked about runway show that had the fashion set making the hour-long trek out to Brooklyn (gasp!) for his high-tech collection.

But let's get to the actual clothes, shall we? First up is Monique Lhuillier, who took our breath away with a collection of straight up stunning gowns. Her beautiful dresses had a touch of dark romance, and one of our favorite numbers was a black and pink full-skirted gown that looked like an explosion of petals. Perfection.

Then there was Prabal Gurung, who showed a lot of versatility for his F/W collection, but the real highlights were his high-necked, long-sleeved gowns with clever cutout detailing.

Prabal is an awards show favorite, and so we wonder if we'll see any of these gowns next month at the Oscars? We could totally imagine Lupita Nyong'o in any of these looks.

We've also gotta talk about Alexander Wang, who closed out his show with a grand finale where models wore heat-activated leather clothes that changed colors from black to bright shades of neon. Insanely cool.

Other major moments: DKNY's fun and flashy show inspired by New York City (and featuring real women!), Victoria Beckham's refined and feminine collection, Altuzarra's Technicolor dreamcoats, and the list goes on.
