Elizabeth Hurley recalls the moment she slayed the iconic safety pin dress!

In an exclusive interview with People, the model cum actress revealed how she prevented a potential wardrobe malfunction. 

The Strictly Confidential actor reveals, "Well, the odd thing about all couture garments is that, despite their daring appearance, they are so grounded in your body. So that was certainly the most costly dress I'd ever worn. I never even heard of Versace when I was offered that dress to wear; it was made in the most extraordinary way.”

“Before I left my residence, I bent down and touched the tips of my feet and extended and squirmed, and absolutely nothing shifted because, as you don't need to know, nothing moves, but they're all held together somewhere. And that was my first experience of that,” Hurley continued. 

To note, the late Gianni Versace designed the bodycon dress which featured a deep neckline, slits and big gold safety pins going down the side.

"The last time I wore it was that day in 1994. Then it went straight back to Versace the next day."

Hurley went on saying, "It's a well-traveled dress. It was just amazing to have something on that was so beautifully crafted. And while it appeared to be really adventurous, it was actually entirely safe. Like wearing a bathrobe, really."
