Candice Swanepoel takes tumble at New York Fashion Week

Victoria's Secret model Candice Swanepoel took a nasty tumble on the runway at the New York Fashion Week. 

She fell to the floor, grazing her arms and knees, while walking in Givenchy's spring/summer 2016 runway show on Friday night, September 11, reported Female First. 

Swanepoel was offered support from audience members in the front row and made a graceful recovery, continuing to walk down the catwalk - despite sporting some cuts on her knees. 

Taking to Instagram after the incident, Swanepoel, 26, said she was physically fine but had suffered a "bruised ego". 

"Thank you to who ever picked me up off the runway tonight. Left with little scratches but mostly a bruised ego #ohwell (sic)" 

Stars in attendance at the show included Kim Kardashian West - whose sister Kendall Jenner also walked for Givenchy - her husband Kanye West, Nicki Minaj and Ciara.
