And just like that, Yeezy Season 5 has come and gone. On Wednesday, Kanye West rolled out yet another collection in a show presented by Adidas during New York Fashion Week. The show was peanuts compared to September's Season 4 spectacle/disaster and the grand event that happened one year ago when Kanye delivered Season 3 at Madison Square Garden. (Recall, Kanye also played The Life of Pablo in its entirety, and then played it again, and then played some other tunes because sometimes it's fun to be a DJ for an afternoon). Here, some observations from those who were lucky enough to squeeze into a dark room and breathe the same air as Kim Kardashian, Anna Wintour, and Kanye West (maybe).

1. The Yeezy Season 5 invitation included a sweatshirt. If you've ever been to a Yeezy show (or read about it), this should not be news to you. For Season 5, Kanye included a "Lost Hills" army green sweatshirt and lookbook.

2. All credentialed press was shown the door just before the start of the show. As E! discovered in tweets from some attendees, photos and videos taken for social media were also banned.

But it looks like the ban did not stick — refer to the rest of this post and Kim Kardashian's Snapchat entire story.

3. The show started 25 minutes late, which is sort of good in Yeezy history.

4. A hijab-wearing model from Minnesota made her catwalk debut in the show. Nineteen-year-old Halima Aden, who was born in Kenya and recently signed with IMG Models, previously made headlines in November when she competed in her state's Miss USA competition while wearing a hijab. For Yeezy Season 5, Halima looked incredible:

5. A new Adidas x Yeezy runner was spotted in the collection. It appears to be available in two colorways.

5. Models were projected on a giant four-sided screen before walking the runway IRL.

6. For part of the show, Kanye played a cover of a J. Holiday classic. The Dream provided the cover of "Bed," which turns 10 this year.

7. Seasoned Yeezy model Amina Blue walked in the show, as did Luka Sabbat.

8. Kim arrived in head-to-toe burgundy and sat with Anna Wintour, who has attended every Yeezy show to date.

9. Kylie and Tyga were there — but they showed up late, so Kanye started the show without them. Despite their only being five minutes late, Kanye didn't want to wait — so the couple missed the first few looks.

10. For the beginning of the show, guests sat in total darknessonce inside. Some guests reportedly were also complaining that it was very hot inside the building, a flashback to Kanye's last NYFW show.

11. Kanye was a no-show for the final bow with all the models. Too bad.

12. But he did pose for photos backstage with Kim and friends, including longtime collaborator Virgil Abloh.
