Longtime model Karen Elson, known for her shocking bright red hair, alabaster skin and pristine beauty closed last night’s Zac Posen show in a beautifully crafted fantasy tulle gown that was larger than the state of Rhode Island. Unfortunately it proved too large as she stumbled on the runway and another model had to help her up. She handled it like a pro, broke character (models have to look all moody and stuff ya know) and started laughing and shrugged her shoulders, as if to signal to the audience, “Hey! It’s not my fault this dang dress is so ginormous!” Kudos for changing an awkward, embarrassing mishap into an aww-that’s-so-cute moment! The audience applauded during her entire walk.
