Candice Swanepoel becomes a ‘Fallen Angel’

Danica Van Der Veen

September 14, 2015

Poor Candice Swanepoel. The former Victoria’s Secret angel fell over as she walked the Givenchy Spring Summer 2016 catwalk show.

Ever the professional, Candice regained her composure and completed the show – modelling a few cuts on her knee.

The model later shared this sweet post on Instagram:

The 26-year-old South African beauty was walking in a pair of embellished sling back shoes when she lost her footing and seemingly tripped on the laces, falling hands first onto the long catwalk.

Front row members were quick to come to her aid, and Candice was gracefully picked up by an audience member – she laughed off the blunder and brushed herself down.

Watch Candice’s tumble below.
