ardrobe mishaps are always a bone of contention.
Pop singer Janet Jackson's much publicised clothing malfunction during a show two years ago shocked America.
Some even speculated it was done on purpose. The subject continued to be a hot topic of discussion with the print media, talks shows and more, for a long time.
On the catwalk, a wardrobe malfunction is practically a hazard of the profession.
How do models cope when a skirt slips a few notches (or completely) or a top suspended by a wee string comes off?
Here's what model Carol Gracias did.
At the Bennu Sehgall show at Fashion Week this afternoon, Gracias' ensemble took a beating and we got a bit of a peek-a-boo.
What we are writing about, though, is not the show of skin but the way she bounced back.
Not a muscle on her face twitched.
She held the clothing back in place, and continued to catwalk with poise and confidence, even striking a pose on the way back.
We saw her out on the ramp once again, looking cool as a cucumber, and making eye contact with the main television camera as usual.
Needless to say, she got a thunderous applause from the audience.
