LouieWardrobe Malfunctions
October 18th 2006 05:44
After Janet Jackson's infamous breast baring at the 2004 Super Bowl, it seems wardrobe malfunctions have become a recurring feature on catwalks, red carpets, stages, parties, and other lightbulb-popping places. For budding celebrities looking for a quick way to get noticed, a wardrobe malfunction is the most affordable publicist out there. Whether they were accidental or engineered, these wardrobe malfunctions certainly attracted a lot of attention to their malfunctionees. Of course, for the accidental incidents, the embarrassment would be at "OMGOSH KILL ME NOW" levels, but for the intentional errors, it's way too harsh to say their clothing 'failed' them. After all, any publicity is good publicity.
At just 15 years old, Chanel Iman was this season's break-out model, walking for big names like Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, and Valentino. After experiencing this slip-up at the Cher Michel Klein Spring/Summer 2007 show in Paris, she was branded 'Chanipple', but her reaction to the mockery belied her tender age. She shrugged it off nonchalantly, choosing not to dwell on the incident but to look ahead to what will undoubtedly be a successful career.
Former Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins received quite the surprise when her shoe snagged her skirt, tearing it to the ground. She quickly escaped to the cover of the backstage curtains, but not before baring her bottom and chuckling at herself. Good on ya for having a laugh Jen!
Tara Reid should have invested in some double-sided tape for P. Diddy's birthday party. Her loose-fitting dress was responsible for changing the landscape of unintentional breast exposition forever, as pictures were in high circulation for months afterwards.
Braxton's Monroe-style dress-fluttering wasn't part of the show, but she seemed to handle it well, giving up on her futile attempts to keep her panties covered halfway through the performance and just letting her voice (and dress) soar. Toni seems to have developed a habit for wardrobe malfunctions - she also had a bit of a nip slip when she performed the official song at the opening of the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
I couldn't leave this one out - Janet Jackson made the humble wardrobe malfunction a household name when she popped out of her top to Justin Timberlake's breathy crooning, "bet I'll have you naked by the end of this song".
This malfunction is definitely not as obvious as the others (in fact, you may need to click on the photo for a closer squiz), but I thought Darla deserved an honourable mention for her just barely noticeable nip slip. Moral of the story: don't be stingy with Hollywood tape...and smile because you'll look gorgeous and draw attention away from little slip-up hiccups

and i totally missed that superbowl incident; this is the first time i've seen any pictures; now i understand all the outrage via parents with kids
on another note, at least toni braxton doesnt look overly trashy that way: i actually thought that was eva longoria (before i read what you wrote) as she has a tendancy to go out normally wearing things similar and they apparently are NOT wardrobe malfunctions... hmmm.

i hadn't noticed Eva Longoria's intentional wardrobe malfunctions! do you have links to some pics by any chance?

Considering the context of the photo its definitely NOT child porn! If I have a pic of my toddler on the potty is that also porn to you? Might it be you who are the perv to automatically think sexually when you see nudity? Quite possible.
