What do you get when you have skin-tight dresses and over-three inch killer heels? Models falling down on your catwalk, of course, as Max Azria, chief designer behind the label Herve Leger must have learned by now.

The Herve Leger collection unveiled at New York Fashion Week on Sunday has been making headlines, not so much for the beauty of the dresses themselves but for the inevitable controversy that follows a fashion when models, yet again, trip on the catwalk from too-high heels.

The rest of the Herve Leger collection was, as mentioned before, super form-fitting in Herve Leger tradition, and this season there is a lot of emphasis on a kind of pointy-protruding sort of shoulder emphasis.

Possibly having too-wide shoulders (albeit designed to then give a visual illusion of a narrower waist) is off-balancing for the legs and feet when the movement is already restricted by the tightness of the skirts?
