Brief exposure: Gust of wind gives Tamara Mellon a Marilyn Monroe moment
A rogue gust of wind proved to be a little too much for Tamara Mellon's slip of a summer dress.
A gust exposed the Jimmy Choo founders' bottom as she chatted to a friend on a quay in Cannes.

Oh no you don't: Tamara gets a steadying hand on her flyaway frock
Marilyn Monroe had a similar hiccup in the 1955 movie The Seven Year Itch
Tamara unwittingly gave onlookers and boyfriend Christian Slater, 38, a cheeky flash of her stripey bikini bottoms.
But Tamara quickly got a grip of the situation, and clasped her hand on her bottom to stop her flirty frock from exposing her further.
The 40-year-old businesswoman and socialite who turned Jimmy Choo into a luxury shoe brand before selling her stake for a reported £90million, was enjoying the sunshine in Cannes with actor boyfriend Slater.
Slater is set to debut in new television show 'My Own Worst Enemy', for US channel NBC.
He has a dual role on the show, playing a Jekyll and Hyde pair of characters who are super spies.
Filming for the first 13 episodes begins next month.
