The BRIT Awards are back for another year.
The star-studded event welcomes stars from across the globe who take to the red carpet and the main stage in a variety of stunning outfits – but not everything always goes to plan.
Many celebrities have suffered embarrassing fashion mishaps and wardrobe malfunctions over the years- whether that is accidental flashes or revealing more than they had planned in their outfits.

However in true fashion, the show must go on – despite any awkward outfit moments. Ahead of the BRIT Awards 2024, Daily Star takes a look at some of the event’s biggest wardrobe malfunctions.
See-through dress
Love Island star turned presenter Zara McDermott turned heads as she slipped her famous figure into a sheer sequinned dress for the glitzy awards bash in 2023. She was one of the first stars to walk the red carpet this evening and made sure all eyes were on her as she flaunted her incredible figure in a nude gown.
The star showed off her curves in the floor-length frock which featured a key-hole cleavage and split-cuff sleeves. Zara gave the cameras a fierce look as she posed up a storm, showing off her long, blonde tresses, which were styled in classic waves. However, Zara stunned onlookers as pictures had to blur out what appeared to be too much exposure of her breasts.
Dancer exposed on stage
In 2017, Robbie won the BRITs Icon Award but while celebrating his victory with a performance, fans found themselves distracted from the Rock DJ hitmaker. Not only did two of his dancers fall over while he was in the middle of his medley of The Heavy Entertainment Show, Love My Life and Mixed Signals, there was also a significant wardrobe malfunction.
All of the dancers were wearing low cut tops, and one of the dancer’s bras managed to slip down her chest, exposing her for a second mid-performance. Luckily, she was professional about it and the routine carried on.
Geri spills out of her gown
Spice Girls icon Geri Halliwell, now Horner, wowed fans back in 1997 with a busty number which gave both viewers and her band mates more than they had expected as she accidentally spilled out of the dress onstage. The Look At Me hitmaker laughed off the situation at the time- and walked off stage to continue their global domination of the charts.
The Spice Girls’ BRIT Awards from the ceremony 27 years ago are some of the event’s most famous – from Geri Union Jack dress to Mel B’s revealing leopard print catsuit.
Cape nightmare
Madonna’s BRIT Awards performance in 2015 was one of the event’s most highly anticipated appearances, with hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly building up the suspense throughout the show. The music icon took to the stage and dazzled the audience with her song Living For Love, but suffered an onstage fall after a serious wardrobe malfunction.
The star’s cape was supposed to be pulled off as she walked up the stairs, but it failed to unfasten properly, which meant not only did the dancers pull the cape – they pulled Madonna down with it too. In true music legend style though, Madonna got up and carried on her phenomenal performance – showing that despite a tumble onstage, she is still one of the all time greats.
Red carpet flash
Little Mix beauty Jade Thirlwall almost suffered a red carpet flash at the BRIT Awards 2017, when a strong gust of wind blew her dress upwards. The singer had arrived at the event in a gorgeous white silk gown which showed off her curves and toned legs.
Luckily, Jade realised that the wind threatened to show much more than her legs, and quickly held the dress down on the red carpet to avoid an embarrassing wardrobe moment in front of the cameras.
Nude illusion
Love Island star Montana Brown gave fans a cheeky flash of skin in more ways than one at the BRIT Awards 2019. While walking on the red carpet in a nude bodysuit, which was covered in a sheer layer of material, the top layer of the naked dress became caught on her body and accidentally flashed her bottom to the cameras.
Despite the mishap, Montana looked stunning as she walked down the red carpet in a matching pair of nude heels, and barely-there makeup that was framed by her gorgeous brown flowing locks.
‘Best nip-slip’
Haim won the award for Best International Group at the BRIT Awards 2021, but group member Este Haim suffered an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction while onstage. During their acceptance speech, bass guitarist and vocalist Este’s was wearing a plunging black jumpsuit that fell open.
The bass guitarist and vocalist then accidentally flashed her nipple to fans watching at home, with many viewers taking to Twitter following the mishap. One fan said: “Ain’t a Brit Awards without a nip slip is it lmao,” while a second added: “Congrats Haim for winning best nip slip at the Brits 2k21.” The moment didn’t escape the Haim sisters either, with group members Danielle and Alana Haim pointing out Este’s wardrobe malfunction – much to her horror onstage.
BRIT Awards 2024 airs on Saturday, March 2 on ITV1 and ITVX
