It must be so difficult to be a model at times like these! You want to wipe your nose and adjust your hat so you can actually see where you are walking, but you can’t . . .
Need to tame those flyaways?

Didn't someone tell her about the flashbulb thing?
Oh well, I suppose if it can happen to Gwyneth Paltrow, it can happen to anyone!
The lesson here, ladies?
This fall, take care with your red lipstick, panty lines, and the fit of your garments!!

ReplyDeleteI think we all secretly (or not) love these moments because it reminds us that models are human and they have bad days just like the rest of us.

ReplyDeleteCC you just made me laugh and believe me I need it right now.
Thank you so much for this funny post that lifted my mood.
I agree with Danz when she says that these moments remind us that also models have bag days, making them more humans.
And for sure I'll be careful with lipstick :D
xoxo
It's a good reminder about the humanity of the people who works borrowing their face for fashion. Do you have any photos of men in "oops"? Probably those are funny too!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes!!
Tom
You always make interesting posts! That was quite entertaining! Great!

Oooh, I have another example- Carrie from SATC when she was in that charity fashion show and fell.
ReplyDeleteAs for the last picture- Alexandra Kerry (I think so at least) had a similar problem.
Awesome post!
thanks for the comment... It sure was a close call but i am glad they changed the date :)
ReplyDeletehehe this post was fantastic! And I'm so paranoid about the red lipstick thing happening to me, which is why I hardly wear it!
ReplyDeleteO is for ~
ReplyDelete"OH I love this blog!"
This post was so much fun to read and especially to look at .... Wonderful post :) P.S.there is no way I can wear my dress ( now a shirt) as a tunic, they cut it off so short that it fits just below my belly button :S
ReplyDeleteHaha. this was a cute idea.
ReplyDeletehaha what a great post! an insightful look that goes to show that not all things go as planned at fashion week!
ReplyDeletexoxo
i think it's more fun when fashion shows have these mishaps! Small shoes, though, can rarely be avoided - limited sizes + big feet = model in pain.
ReplyDeleteThe last picture is terrible...how embarrassing!
ReplyDeleteI'm always worried about transparency.
ReplyDeleteI just laughed out loud for like five minutes! Models are so silly.
ReplyDeletei love the first purple dress!
ReplyDeleteBravo for you post!
ReplyDeleteYou´ve seen and write about things most of people don´t see nor write. Good pictures too. I´ll be careful with red lips, necklines and transparencies (jajajaajj)
Kss
