Model Carol Gracias's garment came undone on the ramp for designer Bennu Sehgall at the Lakme India Fashion Week. The front of her dress slipped, giving India its big wardrobe malfunction. It was soon followed by model Gauhar Khan's garment opening at the back during a show.

What she said: "It was the biggest wardrobe malfunction that fashion has witnessed. But it was fabulous to see her pick up the garment and take hold of the ramp." Jewella C Miranda, photographer.

Status now: Carol did not let that incident affect her and is one of India's top models. She was also one of three finalists at the first season of Bigg Boss and later appeared on Koffee With Karan.
