Zendaya Coleman Is Winning Fashion Week's Front Row, and She's Only 17

At 17, I'm not sure I had a clue about Fashion Week (except for the bits and pieces I gathered from Sex and the City). So I'm not just envious of singer/actress Zendaya Coleman's presence at this year's most covetable front rows, I'm also super impressed.

You may not know who this long and leggy teen is unless you're under the age of 12. She was the former star of the Disney show Shake it Up and went on to become the youngest contestant on Dancing with the Stars. But enough about that, more about what this girl is wearing. Thanks to Coleman's bold sense of style and the help of her genius stylist Law Roach, here are some of her best outfits from the past week. Coleman isn't just going to Fashion Week — she's BRINGING it.
