Despite dressing very beautifully, Emma Watson once accidentally exposed her underwear during a movie premiere.
Costume mishaps are the top nightmare of female stars all over the world. These rare events sometimes come from human carelessness but sometimes from… bad luck. Like the incident of actress Emma Watson 15 years ago, in 2009, when she was famous all over the world with the role of the young witch Hermione Granger, Emma immediately had a wardrobe malfunction right on the red carpet of the premiere of part 6 of the blockbuster: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
The “3 wizards” on the red carpet of the premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, in London on July 7, 2009.
Emma Watson at that time possessed the visual of a 19-year-old girl that made the whole world admire. The photos of her with a white umbrella covered in rainwater, viewed after 15 years, still look like they were cut from a newly released movie.
The rain that day would have been beautiful if it hadn’t created a small problem for the Harry Potter heroine. Specifically, Emma’s dress with a slit that reached too high up to her stomach immediately betrayed her more than once when the downpour came.
The first time was when she was busy signing autographs for fans, a strong wind blew her skirt up, leaving Emma unable to react in time. In a more ironic moment, the actress herself accidentally exposed her nude underwear. The American Daily News at that time even described Emma as recreating the legendary moment of the late Marilyn Monroe.
Perhaps the heavy rain that caused the flooding caused Emma Watson to make a moment of indiscretion, as she tried to protect her dress from getting wet.
Not stopping there, I don’t understand what Emma Watson’s stylist was thinking when he chose for her an extremely “dangerous” dress, not only with a high slit from the bottom up but also… a deep slit from the top down, causing one side of the young actress’s chest to almost be exposed to the media lens. With that design, the crew should have prepared protective pants and patches to fix Emma’s outfit to prevent any possible situations.
The ill-fitting dress was handed to the young actress, causing her to struggle in the middle of a big event. In the photo on the left, Emma’s expression also shows her apprehension as she tries to tie the belt around her waist.
A day after the wardrobe malfunction, Emma Watson had to appear on a TV show in the US. Here, the MC did not hesitate to “question” her about the incident that had just happened. In response, Emma calmly replied: It was just a small accident, I don’t even remember how it happened specifically. However, at least you can see, I was still wearing underwear… I’m still learning how to appear on the red carpet.
Faced with this ironic story, the audience often has a negative view of celebrities, but Emma’s bravery and intelligent answer at the age of 19 made everything normal.
Emma Watson, known as “Hollywood’s other girl”, is the ideal model for many young people. At the age of 34, she has everything a successful woman should have: beauty, talent, and fame. But there is one thing that Emma Watson regrets the most and also admires the most, which is that she chose to turn her back on the halo of a famous actress to pursue her own career.
Emma Watson has not acted since 2019. In 2020, she was appointed to the board of directors of the luxury fashion group Kering – the unit that owns the brands Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga and Alexander McQueen.
