Chrissy Teigen Joins the Ranks of Stars Who’ve Suffered Nether-Region Wardrobe Fails

So that’s what needles and thread are for! On Sunday night, Chrissy Teigen hit the American Music Awards red carpet in a floor-length black dress that basically amounted to two flaps of cloth held together by giant safety pins. The only problem? It turned out that two pins aren’t enough to keep an entire dress in place, which caused the 30-year-old model to flash her lady parts to the world — and put her in the ranks of other stars who have showed off a bit more than they banked on.

Teigen seemed blissfully unaware of the wardrobe malfunction at the time, and to her credit, she did look pretty amazing for someone who had a baby just seven months ago. But while her legs are certainly second to none, she should probably consider a dress with a bit more, umm, staying power next time around.

Obviously, Chrissy’s not the first lady to put herself on full display by going commando. Selena Gomez showed off her nether region twice in one day (she was really working the sexy look). From up-to-there jean skirts to elegant black dresses that needed just a slight adjustment, the outfits worn by Justin Bieber’s ex have proved that she’s comfortable risking it all for style.

And let us not forget Cara Delevingne at the world premiere of Pan in London last year. The 24-year-old model (who isn’t exactly known for being shy) opted for a flirty, feathery, micro-mini dress and decided underwear would just be way too formal.

When it comes to leaving little to the imagination, it seems that models really have the market cornered. While at Cannes in May, Bella Hadid (whose sister, Gigi Hadid, was skewered on social media for her hosting job at the AMAs last night, just FYI) suffered a malfunction of her own. Walking the famous red carpet at the glamorous event, the 20-year-old’s slinky Alexandre Vauthier Couture dress opened a bit farther than Bella probably intended.

And last, but certainly not least, is the queen of this list: Paris Hilton herself. The hard-partying heiress has had more wardrobe woes than we can count over the years, but to her credit, she never let a little slip-up like flashing her nether region to the press stand in the way of a good time. For her birthday party in 2014, she rocked a hot-pink, breezy, Alon Livne dress that left little to the imagination.

But hey, she also wore a tiara, so there was that.

No word yet from Chrissy on what she thought of the oops (or if she’ll change her styling strategy moving forward), but something tells us that the new mom will take it in stride. … Her husband, however, maybe not so much.

Update: Chrissy has responded to people on Twitter criticizing her for the mishap by tweeting, “I was walking. It floated. It’s over. I can’t take it back. Here is a formal apology. What else would you like?”
