World First Vertical Catwalk on Burj Khalifa Dubai
If you thought fashion shows were about slender models balancing on pencil-thin heels and
flaunting designer finery, then think again. In fact, the fashion ramp has never quite
evoked such thrill and drama, ever.
A select group of Dubai's fashions witnessed this historical show as six acrobats scaled
the majestic Burj Khalifa in musical synchronize on the cold, chilly Monday night.
The magic unfolded just minutes after the 8pm musical fountain show had ended.
The spotlight quickly shifted to the glossy pillars of the tallest tower as the acrobats,
dressed in golden, shimmery body suits, enthralled and mesmerized with their swift choreography.
They turned the shimmering steel walls of the Burj Khalifa into their ramp, taking turns
into break into a rhythmic drill.
The group took only two breaks, during which, 10 gorgeous models strutted their stuff on
the catwalk. The focus, however, was more on the thrilling
acts of the acrobats.
They ended their performance by shading the Burj Khalifa in colors of the UAE flag, as
two of them walked down the tower with their DSF shopping bags in hand.
The vertical catwalk, which is touted to be the first of its kind, is another feat on
Dubai's fashion map. The vertical catwalk, which has definitely
taken Dubai's fashion scene to glorious heights.
