Fashion Mishaps

What are your favorite fashion mishaps? They can be a horrible outfit a celeb wore, or just something that you find to be a fashion mistake...Post pictures, stories etc...My favorite fashion mishap was when Karolina Kurkova fell at the Versace F/W 02 Couture show (I know that it isn't the nicest thing, but most fashion mishaps aren't)

I don't really have a fav one - but about karolina falling down, I'm torn. On one hand it's funny but I feel bad for her it must have been embarassing

Not sure who this model is, but I was pretty sure someone would fall on the Dior shoes.

Looks like the girl who fell at that Dior show was Bettina. I don't know who she is but I feel sorry for her.

I think it's so cute when they fall (thinks of sex and the city episode...) I just hope they don't hurt themselves...

But it does keeps them... grounded, so to speak :P

makes them look less like powerful super-human mind-controlling beautiful vixens that media/everyone sets them out to be... "models fall too!"

If I ever become a designer (yeah right) in every show I will have one model intentionally fall (without hurting herself), and it'd be a surprise who it was every season

She is the same girl that stumbled at his Haute Couture show for Fall 2003. Hmm

I'm not surprised!! Those heels were nearly 7 inches high!

Slightly OT, but a friend of mine owns the shoes that Karolina Kurkova wore in that show!

I know my models are all going to be falling. I'm all about the sky-high fetish heels, and I would not mind sending the girls out in 8-inchers.

Oh, that's so sad! Does anyone remember how Michelle Deswarte stumbled FIVE times on Gucci's fur runway for fall 2002?! I think oftentimes, if a girl isn't established enough, a tumble at a really high profile show can ruin a career.

Yes. Poor her. She had to carry her shoes.

That Gucci show was a disaster waiting to happen. LOOK what they are walking on. Heels can easily get caught in that sheepskin, or whatever that is. It would be "sad" if they girl just sat there. But, they always get up. No one is really ever laughing at them. Its funny when anyone falls, even if it isn't on a runway.

It happens to the best of them.
