Olympic legend Lindsey Vonn's horror ESPYs red carpet wardrobe malfunction
The skier attended the ESPY awards in Los Angeles, where the best athletes of the previous year were recognised for their achievements.
Simone Biles scooped a prize but the event was overshadowed by an embarrassing moment on the red carpet.
Vonn posed for snaps and showed off her glamorous maroon dress.
She dazzled wearing heels but the leg slit in the dress made for an awkward moment.
A gust of wind blew her dress up and exposed Vonn's underwear.
Fortunately someone was on hand to come to her aid and covered her modesty from the onlooking photographers.
Vonn later took to social to respond to the situation.
'Strong and feminine… Doesn't have to be one or the other. We can be both — just be you,' she wrote.
'And no…. I didn't skip leg day.'
Vonn later changed her outfit as she appeared onstage at the award ceremony.
The second look was equally as stunning, with the 40-year-old capturing the eye in a glittery, shiny silver dress.
She posed for a photo with Olympic gymnast Biles.
Vonn, who once dated Tiger Woods, usually attracts attention on the red carpet for all the right reasons.
She turned heads in Madrid this year as she hosted the prestigious Laureus Awards.
She wasn't the only one to suffer a malfunction on the red carpet.
Model Brooks Nader appeared to have a nip slip when she showed up but shrugged it off with a quick readjustment.
In December 2021, Nader told Fox News Digital she has been planning her red carpet looks since her childhood and that she loves 'to experiment with my personal style.'
'Sports Illustrated helped my confidence a lot,' she explained. 'You're surrounded by some of the most influential, beautiful supermodels.
'Not only do they have the recognition, but they also have beautiful hearts, and they're even more gorgeous on the inside. It's a very spirit-lifting community to be a part of. And it has certainly helped me find my place in the world as a model.'
She went on to explain that with her many daring fashion choices, she has 'had so many near mishaps.'

New footage of cosy CEO embrace at Coldplay concert emerges
Newly discovered video shows a fresh angle to Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon wrapping his arms around his HR chief, Kristin Cabot, at the Coldplay show where their cheating was caught on the kiss-cam. A fan shared the footage of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin singing up close — with the disgraced former CEO cuddling Cabot on a balcony behind him, reports the New York Post. 'POV: Trying to get the best photo of Coldplay but you end up getting this viral affair as well,' the caption read, with the pair seen swinging to the music together in the first row of the mezzanine. Byron and Cabot — who are both married to other people — were caught copying up at the concert when they were unexpectedly caught on the kiss-cam in a notoriously viral video. The pair, while initially smiling, started to panic under the spotlight, with Cabot quickly covering her face and Byron ducking out of view, the viral video shows. Coldpay's Martin, seeming a bit confused by the awkward situation, joked, 'Either they're having an affair or they're very shy.' The video immediately took the internet by storm, and the couple faced swift repercussions. Andy was forced to resign from Astronomer over the scandal, and Cabot has been placed on leave.
