I Just Couldn’t Resist…

This probably isn’t even that funny, but for some reason it just provoked some serious laugh-out-loud laughter amongst me and my office mates. These poor girls, busting their asses at the Herve Leger show yesterday, see full pics on Jezebel (it's worth it).

I would like to say it’s not their fault; the skin-tight dresses, the six-inch platforms, even designer Max Azaria blamed the falls on the slick finish of the runway. But it just so happens that one of these girls also fell in the Prada Spring/Summer 09 show. So maybe it’s time to consider a different career path…

The poor thing looks like an under-fed Russian gymnast trying to stick a landing. Perhaps she was, thus enabling her to deliver the blunder with such grace. She picked herself right up, it could have been worse.

Final Word: Let’s just interpret this as the literal demise of the bandage dress. We’ve had enough, it’s very much time for it to tumble out-of-sight. Sorry ladies, that you had to be the victims.

This is why I don't wear heels above 3 inches in height. If a model, paid thousands of dollars/ day to strut a catwalk, can't make it without falling down, how could I go about my icy city, with a job and kids and interests, without breaking my neck?
