Socialite Kim Kardashian suffered a wardrobe malfunction before stepping on the red carpet at a recent event.

Kim was running late for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala 2014 and accidentally flashed her navy blue underwear while rushing out of the Lanvin store, New York, reports eonline.com.

The 33-year-old, who is said to marry singer and fiance Kanye West, must be extra careful with her choice of dress, since the ocean blue strapless gown had a very high slit that reveals her entire thighs up to her private region.
