Supermodels are known for appearing super-human too. But they really are human. At the 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Shanghai, China, one of the supermodels, Ming Xi, fell while modeling a lingerie piece with a long gauzy train. It’s surprising more models don’t trip while modeling the long elaborate trains they wear. When Ming stumbled to the ground, fellow model Gizele Oliveira was there to help her up and cheer Ming on. Video below.
Ming, the 5’10” 28-year-old Chinese fashion model, launched her career at the 2011 Givenchy Haute Spring Show. This is Ming’s fifth consecutive Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. But just because it was her fifth show doesn’t mean it gets any easier. As Ming explains on Instagram: “It was no doubt one of the hardest moments I have ever had to go through in my career, especially since the show was taking place in my hometown, in front of my mother’s and my people’s eyes. However, the support I received from everyone yesterday was incredible and I am truly grateful to everyone who was there for me.” The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show airs Tuesday, November 28 at 10pm on CBS.
