Guests at the Nanette Lepore show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Wednesday got a surprise political push.
Along with her show handout, guests were given blue Obama/Biden campaign pins.
The pins lined the seats at the runway show and included a link to the president's website.
Lepore made no mention of the pins in interviews backstage before the show.
Celebrities in attendance at the show included Stanley Tucci and Abigail Breslin.
