Nadia Bartel was turning heads at the Michael Lo Sordo show at Afterpay Australian Fashion Week on Monday.
The designer wore a long, sleek black frock but had trouble controlling the maxi dress as she strutted into the Sydney venue.
The length of the gown made walking comfortably hazardous, with Nadia repeatedly trying not to trip over the fabric.
She leaned down to adjust the dress multiple times, freeing it from her towering stilettos, before finding her footing.
Nadia looked stunning in the high fashion look which featured cut-outs at the hips flaunting a hint of skin.
