JENNIFER Hawkins, Australia's own down-to-earth beauty queen, handled one of the worst "wardrobe malfunctions" ever seen with great poise last night.
Brief moment ... Jennifer Hawkins reveals more than she bargined for.
In a shocking scene, the bottom section of a stunning blue-and-gold gown Hawkins was modelling for a packed crowd fell down around her ankles.
Despite having been on the Miss Universe world circuit for just two months, Hawkins handled the disastrous moment perfectly.
When she realised she was exposed from the waist down, she didn't panic or try to fix it, she simply turned on her stilettos and cruised off stage.
Hawkins scored a 10 out of 10 for courage under fire, with those in the crowd saying she simply laughed the incident off and just 15 minutes later she was still smiling as she exited.
The bottom section of her stunning dress, which was split at the waist, caught on her stiletto while Hawkins was on stage for a promotional event at Westfield Miranda as part of her whirlwind Australian tour.
A man in the crowd said she appeared to trip as she turned away from the crowd.
"She came and said a few words and she went to walk off and seemed to trip on her dress," the man said last night.
"The dress fell about her knees, she giggled and then rushed off."
