This Victoria's Secret Model Had a Major Runway Wipeout and Still Managed to Be Completely Fabulous
Honestly, that shiny runway does look daunting.
The 2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show filmed in Shanghai this morning. Judging from the brand's horde of behind-the-scenes Instagram snaps — which feature smiling models and dreamy lingerie — the event went off without a hitch, even ater facing some setbacks last week. Well, except for just one thing.
Model Ming Xi, a genetically-blessed Shangai native, followed in the footsteps of Naomi Campbell and Bella Hadid when she took a quick tumble on the glossy runway. (See, Ming? It happens to the best of 'em!) Wearing a flowing white robe that, honestly, looks really easy to trip over, the 28-year-old had a quick model down moment that made her giggle.
Here she is in that precarious piece of lingerie:
And here's the almost inevitable whoops! Look at that cute smile.
The model couldn't hide her adorable little laugh — even under that halo of white blossoms.
But, the beauty recovered with grace and ease, and stood right back up to finish her saunter down the famous runway.
And, that's how a pro does it, ladies and gents! We're amazed she could walk a freshly polished runway at all, in those towering gladiator boots.
The hotly anticipated show will air on November 28. And while you watch, keep a close eye on Alessandra Ambrosio: the Brazilian beauty just announced that this is the last year she will walk in the show. *Sniff.*
