This Is the Best Runway Model Fall We've Ever Seen
Photo: WireImage1/7There's no shortage of celebrities tripping over themselves in heels, whether on the runway, the red carpet (hi Jennifer Lawrence!) or the stage (eek, Meghan Trainor). But we've never witnessed a fall so elegant that we actually believe the model tripped on purpose.
At the Toni Maticevski Resort 2017 show in Australia, a model made her graceful descent to the runway floor, while her cloud-colored dress billowed in the night air. There was barely a hair out of place, leading us to believe this was all part of a carefully-orchestrated modern dance routine. But you be the judge. Click through the slideshow to see the fall in slow motion. And Jennifer Lawrence, if you're reading this, take notes.
