Trippy Shoes: Models Fear Next Step at Alexander McQueen, Tatjana Patitz Wobbles at Hermes Wed, 03/11/09 — 12:35:15 PM
>> No one fainted this time around at Alexander McQueen, but the show could win this season's Prada award for torturous shoes — even over Nina Ricci. Numerous inches were added to the festishistic heels, and the girls took every step with care — some even broke their runway stare to glance down momentarily, and Sigrid Agren looked around like she's frightened of the next step. Karlie Kloss, below, had to stop and fix her dress to keep from tripping over it. Suzy Menkes was discomfited by the display: "the models were tortured into dresses that hobbled their feet, making each runway step treacherous and giving a discomforting misogynist feel to the show."
Meanwhile, this morning at Hermes, another painful scene: supermodel Tatjana Patitz seemed to be out of practice on the runway. She almost tripped and fell three times, including when she closed the show. When Jean Paul Gaultier came out for his bow, he gave her a hug, and apparently she looked like she was about to cry.

thanks for the vids
and yes, I also knew about that but I don't know if it's true, she looked very normal, not like she was about to cry
btw, that's what I call a big show, more of 40 models on the runway

yes I also thought watching the videos "How many models are catwalking ?" !! I agree with you Tatjana was not about to cry it's clear !! It seems it is really in to critize her at the moment.

She looks more sad than serious, (what seems to be indended...)
Yes welcome to the forum Raphael !! Tatjana seemed just normal to me as she has never been smiling a lot when she catwalks. Maybe she was a little bit stressed to be back in a so big show even if she is famous model !
