Candice Swanepoel Falls During NYFW Givenchy Show; Suffers Scratches & ‘Bruised Ego’

Model down! New York Fashion Week had its first fashion roadkill (we miss you, “Sex and The City”) moment on Friday.

Candice Swanepoel, a longtime Victoria’s Secret Angel and runway veteran, took a tumble while walking in the Givenchy Spring/Summer 2016 show on Friday.

Security helped the 26-year-old South African beauty to her feet, and she finished her catwalk strut.

Candice later posted an Instagram photo of her injuries – bloodied knees and a “bruised ego.”

“Thank you to who ever picked me up off the runway tonight,” she captioned the pic. “Left with little scratches but mostly a bruised ego. #ohwell.”

On Thursday, Candice hung out with her fiance, Hermann Nicoli, at Rihanna’s NYFW party.
