Karlie Kloss Anthony Vaccarello Fall 2012 Show Kicks Off Model's Fashion Week (PHOTOS)

The day after eager fashion editors (like us) trumpeted her arrival in Paris, Karlie Kloss has already hit the runway.

The 19-year-old model made her Fall 2012 fashion week debut with Anthony Vaccarello, the designer behind that sexy black cutout gown she wore on last season's runway (and that Gwyneth Paltrow wore in March 2012's Harper's Bazaar).

Karlie opened the show and, as Elle.com describes, "The crowd nearly sighed with relief when it caught sight of her familiar face." Elle.com also has an idea as to why Karlie went AWOL from Fashion Week to begin with:

Rumor has it she meant a commercial gig in Japan, one that didn’t work out.

So not only is she walking in Paris Fashion Week, but the "big opportunity" she was supposedly occupied with isn't happening. So does this mean the major runway moment (Dior? Vuitton?) we all predicted won't be happening either?

Either way, we're just glad to see her back. Check out a photo tweeted by Jessica Michault of the International Herald Tribune -- more pics to come!

UPDATE: We've got runway pics in the slideshow below.

I went through the slideshow, I saw nipple, and now I am damaged permanently. :(

Nice to see Karlie as first face in a show again. Hopefully she'll be tearing up various runways soon. She's the best!

For years we've been told that make-up and fashion make a woman more beautiful......that certainly doesn't seem to be the case any longer.

You got that right, some ugly girls here.

They look like an ad for a pro-ana site

They've become rather Zombie-like & it isn't attractive at all.
