Victoria Hervey exposes her underwear, as gust of wind forces her gown to blow aside

She may be a Lady, but Victoria Hervey looked as though she'd been pinching style tips from the TOWIE crew last night.

The British socialite stepped out in an elegant floor-length gown, but as a gust of wind cast over her, it caused the dress to blow aside.

With every inch of her leg and more on display, the 35-year-old then attempted to protect her modesty by covering the mishap with her hand.

As luck would have it, the wardrobe malfunction took place at a prestigious event taking place in Miami Beach, Florida.

The former It girl attended the Emporio Armani & Cardi Black Box Gallery Party to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Art Basel, held at Wet W Hotel.

The art show, taking place over four days, is considered to be the most distinguished in the country, with more than 260 leading galleries from North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa taking part.

Maybe I should have worn something else? Victoria tries to cover the embarrassment with her hand

Despite the momentary embarrassment, Victoria's fashion choice complimented her slender frame, creating curves around her hips as the material billowed gracefully in the air.

To be fair, even if the dress had stayed in place, onlookers were still teased with a generous glimpse of flesh as the skirt part of the frock was made of chiffon.

Victoria is obviously enjoying her time across the Atlantic, gushing on Twitter: 'So inspiring being here. Love.'

Hervey knows the US well, having relocated to Los Angeles in 2003.

It all started so civilised: Victoria's gown complimented her slender frame by creating curves as the material billowed in the breeze

She moved to America in a bid to become a star, securing a small role in 2004 film RX, opposite Colin Hanks - son of the infamous Tom.

However, failing to win lucrative parts, she returned to the UK and became something of a regular on reality shows.

To date, Hervey has starred on The Farm, Love Island and Don't Call Me Stupid - and she's due to appear in upcoming Living TV show Party Wars.

TWILIGHT FAME FORCES STAR TO LIVE LIKE OO7

ROBERT Pattinson has to live like a paranoid James Bond because of obsessed Twilight fans.

The superstar, who plays vampire sex god Edward Cullen in the hit series, lives his life like a secret agent so crazy fans can’t hunt him down.

R-Patz, 25, said: “It’s annoying, like, trying to find somewhere to live, because you are literally thinking about things like you are a fugitive, or a CIA undercover operative or something, you are genuinely worried about spies.

“Trying to find a house you’re like, ‘What’s the street parking like? Can people see in? I can’t have people park outside.’

“You can’t have anyone cleaning your place, and you have to worry about your guests just in case someone talks about where you live. It’s crazy.”

However despite all this he loves being part of the Twilight saga, adding: “I guess everybody’s got something to complain about, no matter what their life is, but the pros definitely outweigh the cons.”

While girls around the globe think Rob’s vampire character Edward Cullen is amazing, the man himself finds him annoying.

He said: “The annoying thing about him is the fans’ perception of him being the perfect guy.

“I wanted to play his flaws, but then you have this sub- liminal idea coming from everywhere saying, ‘No, he’s got to be perfect!'”

Despite being one of Britain’s biggest heart-throbs the blood-sucking hunk has no idea why girls are obsessed with his “ugly” undead character. Rob said: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a vampire movie where I think the vampires are attractive. They end up looking worse than they do in their real life with the pale make-up and the fangs.

“I have never understood the fascination with vampires. People are obsessed and I don’t know why.

“I know the history of it. I find it interesting to think there are true stories of things in, say, Romania.

“I like all the conspiracy theory aspects of it.”

Hugh Bonneville, John Thomson for 'Millionaire' forces special

Downton Abbey's Hugh Bonneville, The Fast Show's John Thomson and TV presenter Melanie Sykes will appear in a Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? remembrance special to raise money for armed forces charities.

The trio will be seen partnering forces personnel on the Chris Tarrant-fronted general knowledge quiz. Bonneville will join Royal Navy submarine engineer Lieutenant Gary Beels, Sykes will team up with Army medic Major Nicole McCullough and Thomson will partner Sergeant Derek 'Dutch' Holland from the Royal Air Force.

Bonneville said: "I am absolutely dreading my encounter with the Smiling Tormentor, otherwise known as Chris Tarrant. However, I have every confidence that Lieutenant Beels is a genius.

"I only hope that when he realises I am as thick as two short planks he doesn't make me walk one of them."

Bonneville added that he is confident the pair will have "a lot of fun" raising funds for The Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity.

Thomson described the invitation as "a great honour", while Sykes joked that appearing on the show would be "utterly terrifying".

"I'm only hoping that my partner Nicola is as clever as she is brave," she added.

All the money won will be donated to armed forces benevolent charities, in a change from the usual Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? special format where winnings are split with a member of the public.

The Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Remembrance Special will air on Wednesday, November 9 at 9pm on ITV1.
