Gigi Hadid walked in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show for the second time recently, an event she described as a “dream” come true. “I will never be able to put into words how much being in this show means to me and how inspired I am by the people I get to work with,” she shared on Instagram. Yet one part of the “magical” experience that didn’t quite go as planned for the model? A wardrobe malfunction.

As the 21-year-old was strutting her stuff down the runway in Paris’s Grand Palais wearing large feather wings and a black bodysuit featuring straps intricately arranged in a geometric pattern, one of the pieces snapped. And with all of the interconnected pieces, it seemed like the entire bodysuit could’ve completely unraveled before onlookers’s very eyes.

Yet the professional (she beat out her sister Bella Hadid and BFF Kendall Jenner for the Model of the Year Award for a reason) just kept on walking despite the mishap, and avoided disaster.

She still celebrated in the end, too.

But, if you didn’t happen to catch the fashion fluke when the show aired on Monday night, there’s a good reason for that. The event, which taped on Nov. 30, gets two run throughs. Just in case incidents like this happen to arise, producers can cut it out for the final airing for television viewers.
