Margot Robbie risks major wardrobe blunder in daring dress with thigh-high split

Margot Robbie narrowly avoided a wardrobe blunder on the red carpet as she stepped out in a Versace dress with a daring thigh-high split.

The 32-year-old actress greeted fans and paparazzi at the Babylon premiere in Sydney on Monday and almost revealed more than she intended as she walked around outside the State Theatre.

Margot was dressed to impress in a baby blue plunging gown which featured a delicate red lace trim. The dress featured a tie detail at the side which cinched her in at the waist.

She completed her look with a matching pair of blue heels and opted for a minimal makeup look. Margot let her long dark blonde hair flow behind her in loose waves.

The Hollywood star had to use her hand to cover her modesty as she walked, but Margot pulled it off effortlessly.

Margot's new film Babylon is set in 1920s Hollywood, as studios move away from silent movies, and showcases the decadence and debauchery of the era.

The movie has so far been regarded as a flop, underperforming commercially by grossing just $4.85million (£3.9million) in its first four days and $15million (£12.2million) to date, against a production budget of $78million (£64million).

The critical response to three hour movie, directed by Damien Chazelle, has also been divided.

There has been some good news for Babylon, however, as it received five Golden Globe nominations and won Best Original Score for Justin Hurwitz at the ceremony.

It has also received a SAG nomination for best cast in a motion picture, and has collected nine nominations at the Critics Choice Awards, including best picture, directing and actress.

In Babylon, Margot plays starlet Nellie LaRoy who is navigating her way through the industry. She stars alongside Hollywood icon Brad Pitt.

The film also stars Diego Calva, Jean Smart, and Tobey Maguire.

Brad recently admitted Margot surprised him with an unscripted kiss, but said it was the "tamest thing" in the whole film.

Reacting to the kiss, Brad told Entertainment Tonight : "Believe me, that's the tamest thing she does in this. She's on fire on this. It's the best I've ever seen her."
