It goes down: 7 famous models who fell on the catwalk

Fashion weeks continue at full speed. We watched the fashion shows and couture shows of the latest men’s collections. And after the fashion shows of women’s collections, we have a whole month of digital travel in New York, London, Milan and Paris. And it looks like a lot of interesting things will happen. Meanwhile, anticipating and mentally preparing for an endless stream of new trends, we invite you to dive into the archive and recall the most famous model falls on the runway.

And Naomi Campbell won’t work alone. Even the most successful model at least once in her life “dipped” into the arms of the podium. Meanwhile, some brands are being completely ironic about this, asking models to drop them in plain text. He was on the AVAVAV show last year and then went viral on the Web. That’s the power of marketing!

Well, let’s not forget that in winter we all sometimes feel like models with uneven heels. But now our falls on the slippery streets of the capital remain without general attention. And I’m so sorry! So here are the seven most famous waterfalls in fashion history.

Naomi Campbell

The fashion world’s most famous downfall occurred in 1993 at the Vivienne Westwood fashion show. Of course I’m talking about Naomi Campbell. Black Panther walked the runway in 23cm heels, fell to the ground, smiled and just walked away. You’d be surprised, but this was not followed by a scandal, on the contrary, many designers begged him to fall again, but this time on their show.

Bella Hadid

Yes, yes, incomparable Bella Hadid’s career has not only had its ups and downs. She walked on the Michael Kors show in 2017 and couldn’t resist wearing heels. We understand! Even without heels, we fall periodically, but not on the podium.

By the way, later the model posted her fall on Twitter and joked: “Guys, I totally forgot to tell you, now I breakdance professionally.”

Ming Xi

Angels fall too! This was proven by Chinese model Ming Xi during her Victoria’s Secret show in 2017. It caught in the hem of her dress and fell to her knees. Gisele Oliveira, a Brazilian model who rushed to help, reached out her hand to help her stand up.

Candice Swanepoel

Candice Swanepoel couldn’t avoid relegation either. She walked on the Givenchy show in 2015, but couldn’t lift the shoes of (then creative director) Christopher Bailey. A few guests sitting in the front row immediately began to remove the model.

After the show, Candace wrote on her social media account, “Thank you to everyone who helped me get on the runway today. I have a few minor scrapes but mostly injured arrogance.

Kristen McMenamy

The Olivier Rousteing collection for Jean Paul Gaultier was closed by Kristen McMenamy. The model appeared on the podium with a cannon in her hand, gave it to Mr. Gaultier, kissed him and then … fell. We couldn’t stand it either.

Agyness Deyn

In 2010, Naomi Campbell hosted the Fashion For Relief show to support Haiti. A number of supermodels appeared on the podium, and A-list stars sat in the front row. But I remember the show thanks to Agyness Deyn’s double downfall. Finally she took off her uncomfortable shoes and continued the fashion show without them.

Jessica Stam

In 2006 Phoebe Philo was the creative director of Chloe and presented very uneven heels at the show of her spring-summer collection. Because of them, Canadian model Jessica Stam suffered. She not only stumbled, she fell and hit her head. And after that they still say that models have an easy life.
