Emma Stone showed off her wardrobe malfunction on stage while accepting the Oscar for best actress for Poor Things at the 96th Academy Awards in Los Angeles.
As she prepared to accept the trophy, the 35-year-old Cruella star could be seen holding the back of her Louis Vuitton peplum dress, after her zipper seemingly broke on the back.
‘My dress is broken,’ she began while fighting through tears. ‘I think it happened during I’m Just Ken.’
Once she gained her composure, the performer made a rare remark about her family as she thanked her parents and brother, her husband and daughter.
While speaking directly about her little girl, Louise Jean McCary, the proud mother-of-one gushed she was going to ‘be three in three days’ and turned her ‘world technicolour.’
‘I love you bigger than the whole sky,’ she concluded.

Elsewhere in her speech, she recalled ‘panicking’ the other night while thinking about receiving this honor.
‘Yorgos [Lanthimos] said to me, please take yourself out of it,’ Stone told viewers. ‘And he was right, because it’s not about me. It’s about a team that came together to make something greater than the sum of its parts.’
She also thanked Lanthimos for giving her ‘the gift of a lifetime’ in portraying ‘in Bella Baxter.’
This marks her second Oscar win, seven years after taking home the prize for lead actress Oscar for La La Land.
She’s also previously been nominated in the supporting actress category for Birdman (2014) and The Favourite (2018).
