And despite the fact that it was only her first time on the runway, she completely slayed.

Of course, Dwyane and Gabrielle were in the front row to show their support, and they could be seen beaming as Zaya passed them by.
I mean, look at that proud dad moment!

Once Zaya's job was done, the family was there to celebrate her accomplishment — and it was all captured on camera.
Dwyane and Gabrielle's stylist Thomas Christos Kikis was also on hand to mark the milestone, penning a sweet note to the teen.

Zaya's runway debut also comes just a few weeks after she was legally granted a name change as well as permission to change her gender marker.
