Grace in Motion: A Fall, A Rise, A Moment to Remember
At last night’s Odelon Simpao fashion show in Marriott Moments A-Fair Luxuriant Expo, one of the standout moments didn’t happen on the runway—it happened because of it. A beautiful model from Canada’s Calgary International Fashion & Arts Week (CIFAW) stumbled mid-walk and fell in front of a packed crowd. But what followed was nothing short of inspiring.
With poise and composure, she rose to her feet, adjusted her posture, and continued her walk—head high, spirit unshaken. The audience responded with supportive applause, acknowledging her resilience. Photographer Alan Asuncion, was able to capture he moment and remarked on his FB post:
A fall is not the end—it’s just part of the story. What matters most is how you rise, carry yourself with grace, and wear your beauty with confidence. – Alan Asuncion (WPPP Rookie of the Year 2023)
In a world that often celebrates perfection, this moment served as a reminder that true elegance lies in recovery, not flawlessness.
Marriott Moments A-Fair Luxuriant Expo continues today withe three more fashion shows at 1:30, 3:30 and 6 pm.
