It is not uncommon for stars to be invited to participate in catwalk shows in fashion shows, but not everyone can fulfill this role well.
Cardi B
The “debut” that shocked the modeling industry last week was Cardi B. At Balenciaga’s Pre-Fall 2024 show in Los Angeles, the female rapper suddenly appeared on the runway performing a look including an extremely striking cobalt blue fur coat and black tights.
Although it wasn’t her first time walking in high heels, it seemed that trying out as a model in a fashion show put Cardi B under some pressure. The female artist’s face was commented as awkward and her steps seemed to have many difficulties and created a feeling of instability.
However, that was still not the most viral moment. The focus of the media fell on the moment of the show’s end, when the models came out to say goodbye, Cardi B suddenly skipped the line, turned to the guest seats and… disappeared. Up to now, there has not been any explanation for the “strange show ending” given by the female rapper or Balenciaga.
Netizen asked: ” Where did Balenciaga Creative Director’s promise not to entertain and only focus on fashion go?”
Paris Hilton
At the recent Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2024 , Paris Hilton had a surprising appearance on the Mugler brand’s catwalk. However, contrary to the catwalk at Versace’s Spring/Summer 2023 show, which earned the “Y2K queen” compliments, Paris Hilton’s performance at Mugler’s show received many mixed opinions.
Most people think that her steps are not steady, her rhythm is not correct, and her hand movements are stiff. The only thing that stands out is the beautiful visual of the former drama queen.
Most netizens believe that, compared to the Versace Spring/Summer 2023 show, Paris Hilton’s catwalk steps at the Mugler Spring/Summer 2024 show are somewhat more unnatural and awkward.
Pham Bang Bang
Also at Mugler’s recent Spring/Summer 2024 show, Pham Bang Bang was favorably invited by the brand’s Creative Director, Casey Cadwallader, to participate in the catwalk as a vedette. However, the Chinese star’s catwalk performance was not highly appreciated by the audience.
Most audiences believe that the cool, strong and powerful charisma of beauty Pham is “unparalleled” for a “straight-armed” model.
However, when taking on the position of vedette catwalk pair with Anok Yai, Pham Bang Bang was completely overwhelmed by the professionalism, steady and impressive stride of the world-famous supermodel. Many netizens commented that the beauty Pham’s hands were “swinging” unnaturally, and her steps also lacked certainty.
Kim Kardashian
During Balenciaga’s Haute Couture Fall 2022 show, Kim Kardashian was honored to be invited to participate in the catwalk, which she described as “a dream come true”. Wearing a tight design combined with Pantaboots, Kim K delivered a catwalk performance that was considered “lifeless” and “like going to the market”. Kim Kardashian’s shy expression and unnatural steps caused her to receive many negative reactions for her “modeling debut” this time.
It seems that Kim Kardashian’s “dream” has turned into the audience’s nightmare
Lisa
Lisa once caused a media storm when she became a catwalk model for CELINE’s Fall/Winter 2022 collection. In the video posted by the fashion house, Lisa wears a leather biker jacket, mini skirt and matching leather boots. Lisa’s catwalk performance received a shower of compliments from fans and netizens. Most people thought that she had a pretty good performance for a straight model.
Lisa’s cool demeanor and fast and well-paced catwalk strides caused Lisa’s runway “debut” to receive many positive reactions.
