Kate Moss is no stranger to scandals, but on Tuesday night she took it to a new level by tearing a page from Paris, Lindsay, and Britney's book, flashing the paparazzi in all her panty-less glory.
The supermodel arrived at a London Fashion Week party at the Victoria and Albert Museum wearing what was said to be a 1950s Christian Dior couture gown. But by the evening's end, both Moss and the dress look decidedly worse for wear. The cream gown developed rips across its back and under th model's arm, but the pièce de résistance was the revealing slash across her bare ass.
No doubt fellow partygoers Mario Testino, Anna Wintour, John Galliano, and Prince were atwitter at the sight of the world's fashion muse in shambles. But Moss doesn't get paid the big bucks for nothing. Ever the style maven, the model got out of the embarrassing pinch by hiking the ripped gown up and turning it into a mini dress, knotting it at the waist.
Moss seemed unfazed by her red carpet slip, which is perhaps natural given that anyone whose ever caught her in a fashion editorial has seen pretty much everything there is to see anyhow.
