Chrissy Teigen suffered wardrobe malfunction ahead of White House dinner

Model Chrissy Teigen was forced to make a quick change before the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday (27Apr13) after suffering a last-minute wardrobe malfunction.

The Victoria's Secret model was getting ready to attend the special Washington, D.C. event with her singer fiance John Legend when she stepped into her black beaded dress only to find the zipper broken.

A horrified Teigen immediately took to Twitter.com to upload a photo of her damaged gown and appeal for help from a nearby seamstress, writing in a post, "Late for whcd. Broke zipper. Any tailors in DC wanna sew me in?"

However, the beauty thought it best to slip on something different, tweeting, "Ay yi yi (sic). Backup dress... Yes this also happened last year buttheads."

The 27 year old hit the red carpet in a stunning gold frock and joked about how she decided on her outfit, saying, "This one zipped."
