Cindy Crawford just proved that decades of runway experience pay off in ways you can’t teach. In a new Porter magazine cover story, the 60-year-old supermodel shared that her heel slipped out of her shoe the moment she stepped onto the runway at Gucci’s cruise 2027 show in Times Square. She never got it back in. But because her gown was so heavy and full of feathers, the audience never noticed a thing.
The show itself was a who’s who, with Paris Hilton, Gabbriette and Tom Brady walking the catwalk while Kim Kardashian, Lindsay Lohan, Mariah Carey and Shawn Mendes took in the spectacle from the front row. Still, Crawford’s story about the hidden mishap, and about her daughter Kaia Gerber being proud of her afterward, is the part that sticks with you. She admitted she was nervous going into such a big show, which makes her daughter’s support mean even more.
Crawford also had a message for anyone who thinks women of a certain age should step back and fade away. She says she still enjoys modeling and isn’t ready to retire. That’s a reminder for all of us that passion doesn’t come with an expiration date. So, what’s the worst wardrobe malfunction you’ve ever survived in public? Tell us your story in the comments.
