- NEW!
by Galeanda on April 19th, 2009
It's a term that was already used for a narrow walkway that connects buildings, kind of like a footbridge, allowing workmen to get to one tall building to the next, kind of walking or roaming the neighborhood like a tom cat does. Catwalks are also what they call those narrow walkways up high in theaters or concert halls, just like cats like to walk up high on tops of walls or roofs.

Catwalk floor is a narrow, usually elevated platform used by models to demonstrate clothing and accessories during a fashion show. The term probably derived from catwalks [3] that connect adjacent buildings. The term may also be derived from a more literal meaning, as models on the catwalk often use a walk which is like that of a cat, placing one foot directly in front of the other to produce an alluring swagger in which the hips take on a more exaggerated movement. In fashion jargon, "what's on the catwalk" or similar phrasing can refer to whatever is new and popular in fashion.

Is modelling just a socially accepted form of prostitution, with agents serving as pimps?
