Were you able to catch the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards yesterday?

We saw it, but we missed the “supposed” wardrobe malfunction Jennifer Lawrence went through before receiving the naked statue.

Know for her big feet, JLaw wore a dark blue tiered Christian Dior gown that used a mesh fabric to hold the second layer of the skirt.

The see-through section magically appeared and exposed her thighs (and then disappeared) as she walked up the stairs to receive her award.

We don’t have any decent videos of this 3-second exposure but feel free to look it up on YouTube if you find one.

Of course, once you see it, you will soon realize that there really was no ripping involved. It was just a simple case of her lifting the top layer of the skirt a little too high by mistake.

How do you like Jennifer’s Christian Dior gown?

Is it spectacular or a little too boring for someone like Jennifer, who is young, fresh, and making quite a name for herself in Hollywood? Should she have chosen a more glamorous gown? Any thoughts?

I’m not crazy about this latest red carpet dress of hers, but she does look elegant and classy in it, would you agree? The gown is from Dior’s Spring 2013 Haute Couture Collection.
