Needless to say, she looks oh-so-gorgeous in every look, making everyone go weak in the knees. However, when it comes to her red carpet looks, Priyanka leaves no stone unturned to outshine the rest.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas had looked stunning as she walked the red carpet at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival. For the event, Priyanka Chopra Jonas opted for a shimmery body-hugging gown featuring a thigh-high slit and paired it with huge danglers. She completed her look with nude makeup and left her hair open in wavy curls. However, not many know that Priyanka suffered a malfunction moments before she posed for the paps.

Recalling the moment, PeeCee had once shared some throwback photos from the event, but deleted it later for the reasons best known to her. Alongside it, she had penned a caption and revealed that as she was heading to the film festival, the zipper on the back of her vintage Roberto Cavalli gown ripped. However, she added that her glam team came to the rescue in a matter of minutes. She had penned:

"I may look chill on the outside here, but little did everyone know I had just been freaking out on the inside. The delicate zipper to this vintage @roberto_cavalli dress broke as they were zipping it up minutes before I had to leave for the red carpet at Cannes last year. The solution? My amazing team had to sew me into the dress on the way in the 5 minute car ride!"

Well, the Cannes red carpet wasn't the only time when Priyanka pulled off a fashion mishap at a grand event. Back in 2000, when Priyanka had won the Miss World competition, she covered up an outfit malfunction like a pro. In one of the episodes of the show, People In 10, Priyanka revealed that her outfit was taped to her body and she was sweating too much while being crowned the champion. She added that she was so stressed that her entire tape came off, and thus, she had to hold her hands in the Namaste gesture. In her words:

"The year 2000 and I won Miss World, my dress was taped on to me. By the time I won at the end I was sweating so much 'cause it was so stressful that the entire tape came off. The whole time while I was doing my walk or whatever when I won, I kept my hands like this in a namaste, which people thought was a namaste but actually was holding my dress up. So uncomfortable!" 

Priyanka Chopra Jonas' style game is always on point as she knows how to carry her outfits with the utmost grace. However, she often becomes a victim of online trolls and memes for her looks. For instance, for Grammy’s 2020 Priyanka donned an elegant ivory gown with a plunging neckline which extended just below her navel. The actress looked stunning, and people couldn’t take their eyes off her. But sadly, some of the netizens had found it disturbing and had trolled her on social media.
