Fallen Angel: Candice Swanepoel took an unlucky tumble on the runway for Givenchy SS16 on Friday night as she walked for New York Fashion Week
The blonde was almost unrecognisable with bleached blonde eyebrows - a fact that she'll no doubt be grateful for in the future.
She was walking in fringed booties when she lost her footing and seemingly tripped on the laces, falling hands first onto the long catwalk.
Candice was gracefully picked up by an audience member and laughed off the blunder after brushing herself down.
Going, going: The blonde seemed to trip over her shoes before losing balance and landing on her hands
Bruised ego: Speaking after the show, the blonde said that she was suffering from a bruised ego
Unlucky: She looked pained as she felt the ground swallow her up with embarrassment
No help needed: The blonde was helped up by an audience member but seemed to brush off the offer
After the show, the blonde complained of a bruised ego as she took to instagram with a picture of her real injuries.
She said: 'Thank you to who ever picked me up off the runway tonight. left with little scratches but mostly a bruised ego #ohwell'
An audience member had leapt to her aid and given her hand before she gratefully brushed off the offer and made her own way back up to standing.

With a polite smile and a wave, when helped up the blonde proved that she could put on a brave face still.
She had been modelling and exquisite sheer lace dress, which flashed her underwear to the crowds - though it wouldn't be her only embarrassment that night.
The gothic gown, from Givenchy's SS16 line, was paired with black and red strappy heels that featured an evidently dangerous open-laced detail.

Dangerous: Candice's shoes had open laces
Candice hadn't been the only model to fall on the night, because a brunette companion similarly tripped on the open shoe laces.

And again, audience members reached out to help the distressed catwalk star as she used her hands to pull herself back up.
Body-confident Nicki Minaj was leading the glamour at the show on Friday night, proudly parading her curves in bold leopard print.
The 32-year-old rapper found a wild way to do so, sporting a revealing leopard-print ensemble as she attended the Givenchy fashion show during Spring 2016 New York Fashion Week.
The Truffle Butter hitmaker put her assets on display in a plunging beige, cream, and black mermaid-style midi dress.
She layered the form-fitted frock with a loose wide-sleeved bomber that matched her ruffled hemline.
Nicki unzipped the jacket in back, making sure her round romp was caught on camera.
