Emma Stone fans came to her defense after the “Poor Things” star experienced a wardrobe malfunction at the 2024 Oscars. She wore a mint green peplum gown from Louis Vuitton, and unfortunately, her zipper broke just as she won the best actress award for her role in “Poor Things.”
As Emma Stone went on stage to accept her award, she joked about her dress being broken due to the zipper issue. The back of her strapless gown was gaping wide open, but luckily there was a mint green panel underneath to prevent any major mishaps. Stone mentioned that she was panicking a bit as she anticipated something like this happening.
After Louis Vuitton shared photos of Stone’s gown, Instagram users flooded the brand’s account with comments accusing them of poor craftsmanship. Fans questioned whether a brand that couldn’t make a dress last two hours on an Oscar-winning actress could be considered haute couture. Some users even compared Louis Vuitton to shopping mall retailers in terms of quality.
Quick Change
Despite the wardrobe malfunction, Emma Stone quickly changed into a sparkly silver Louis Vuitton look for the Vanity Fair Oscars party after the ceremony. She also shared some rare PDA moments with her husband, Dave McCary. It seems like Stone managed to gracefully handle the situation and move on from the embarrassing moment.
While the broken zipper incident may have been embarrassing at the time, it will likely become a humorous story that Emma Stone can look back on and laugh about in the future. In the grand scheme of things, wardrobe malfunctions happen to everyone, even Hollywood stars. Stone’s ability to joke about the situation shows her grace under pressure and sense of humor.
