Actress Natasha Richardson unveiled a foxy new look and rather more than she would have liked on the red-carpet at last night’s star-studded Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala.
In an attempt to ensure she didn’t embarrass herself by tripping up as she ascended the stairs in her high heels, Natasha came a cropper anyway. As the actress from the highly-regarded Redgrave acting dynasty hitched up her pale pink chiffon gown, she inadvertently flashed her nude-coloured thong to the assembled audience.
Well, at least she’s wearing underwear unlike most of the Hollywood starlets these days. Natasha has not fallen victim to the trend for ‘going commando’ - wearing no underwear - and her tiny thong just about spared her blushes. Natasha Richardson showed a little more skin than she would have liked at the Met Costume Institute Gala earlier this week. While walking with Tom Ford, the actress hiked up her dress a little too high and - voila - a wardrobe malfunction was born.
Unfortunately Richardson’s husband Liam Neeson and sons Michael and Daniel weren’t around to throw a coat over mom before the paparazzi got a shot.

Richardson began her career in regional theatre, at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in Leeds, England. Her screen debut in Every Picture Tells a Story in 1984, was followed by a CBS miniseries, Ellis Island. A year later, Richardson appeared in a revival of Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull; her first professional work in London’s West End. That same year she made her UK television debut alongside Jeremy Brett and David Burke in The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes appearing as Violet Hunter in the episode “The Copper Beeches“. Soon after, she starred in a London stage production of High Society, adapted from the acclaimed Cole Porter film, and successively portrayed Mary Godwin in the 1987 Ken Russell film, Gothic. The same year she starred opposite Kenneth Branagh and Colin Firth in A Month in the Country, directed by Pat O’Connor. A major moment in advancement was her starring role in The Handmaid’s Tale (1990), playing opposite Robert Duvall and Faye Dunaway. She starred in Nell (1994) alongside her future husband Liam Neeson and Jodie Foster.
She blocked the ITV remake of Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, against the wishes of writer Alan Sillitoe, for “personal reasons.” Danny Brocklehurst’s adaptation was to be a major reworking for the original 1950s novel. Richardson denied access to the story, angering many industry professionals who believe the novel is due a reappraisal, forty seven years after the original film, produced by Richardson’s father, was made.
