Nobody asked for a live Barry Manilow performance of “Copacabana” at New York Fashion Week, but sometimes the universe sends us a blessing we didn’t know we needed.
On the final day of Fall 2019 shows at NYFW, Manilow unexpectedly showed up on the Michael Kors runway to snatch wigs, take names, and sing your Aunt Carol’s favorite drunk karaoke song. And it was incredible.

After a collection featuring Studio 54-inspired disco glamour, Barry joined Bella Hadid and Fran Summers to dance and sing “Copacabana” against a flashy gold backdrop. It’s unclear how fashion shows have ever ended before this. In fact, every runway from here on out should end with a live Manilow performance. Designers, please take note
