As Fashion Week comes to a close in New York City, there's still no shortage of shenanigans coming from the big names crawling the Big Apple.

Lindsay Lohan's front-row seat was empty at a runway show today, while the world's richest bride Petra Ecclestone begged for event tickets all week—and never appeared at any of them.

So what's the scoop? And which other A-list starlet was caught giving her new man some major PDA this week?

Although she did attend other events this week, Lindsay, missed the Sergio Davila runway show at the tents at Lincoln Center today.

"She was running late, unfortunately," a show insider told E! News about Lindsay's absence.

The Veronicas did make the show, however, chatting up the designer backstage beforehand.

Also MIA: Petra Ecclestone, who launched a handbag line called Stark last week. The Croatian heiress and Candy Spelling's mansion buyer had frantically called design and PR houses to secure tickets to shows and events—only to skip them all.

"Her people called over and over making sure she had tickets to this, to that," a Fashion Week source tells E! News about the daughter of Formula One racing CEO Bernie Ecclestone. "After all that, she never came to anything."

DKNY will hold the final show of the evening tonight with AMEX, where singer Lykke Li will perform for the crowd. Marc Jacobs' highly anticipated show, which was pushed back due to Hurricane Irene (delaying the final touches on his designs), will kick off at the Lexington Armory tonight.

Chatter at the tents for the final day of Fashion Week included the extra security Beyoncé and her baby bump required a few days ago as she tried to relax in the gorgeous Mercedes-Benz lounge on site.

"They cleared the entire room for her," a source tells E! News. "No one was allowed in while she was in here."

Partying last night at Catch were Christina Ricci, model Jessica White and Ashlee Simpson, who showed some serious PDA with her new boyfriend, Vincent Piazza.

"They're so in love," one eyewitness tells E! News.

Over at the Darby, E! News spotted F.W. hoppers Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick eating with a group of friends while filming Kourtney and Kim Take New York. Russell Simmons also dined at the trendy restaurant, sharing a table with supermodel best friends Amber Valletta and Shalom Harlow—who cried on Amber's shoulder then hugged her pal for what seemed like an eternity.

Perhaps she was relieved Fashioin Week is finally coming to an end.
