Petra Nemcova supported the 2013 Prague Fashion Week on September 13. The Czech national wore a dress from the Bottega Veneta Fall 2013 collection.

Petra’s dress stood out on the red carpet because it made her look like she was wearing a painter’s canvas. It had a cream background, a textured abstract applique, and full sleeves.

Come to think of it, though, if she wore it to any event, she’d probably make a potato sack the next big thing.

We love that the model kept the rest of her look simple, with her hair slicked back into a bun and her lips painted red. Her nude clutch and peep-toe pumps matched the dress perfectly.

It’s good to see Petra Nemcova bounce back from the tragedy she experienced during the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake when she was in Thailand, which caused her a broken pelvis and the loss of her then-fiancé, Simon Atlee.

She has channeled all her grief into her nonprofit organization, the Happy Heart’s Fund, which she formed to help rebuild schools after natural calamities. Way to go, girl!
