Crisis averted.
Christie Brinkley called in some help from her team when she accidentally grabbed a too-big dress for Tuesday’s appearance on “Today With Hoda and Jenna” — and she also flashed her booty (and made a cheeky pun) in the process.
“My crew keeps me in stitches … literally ! Thank you for the last minute touch ups @mitchbarry I knew you could wield a brush, butt …lol who knew you’re so talented with a needle and thread!?!” the 70-year-old supermodel wrote on Instagram Tuesday, tagging her new clothing brand for HSN, Twrhll.
Brinkley showed off some booty in the pics, laughing at the camera as her hairstylist, Mitch Barry, did a quick alteration on her black shirt dress, which she appeared to be wearing without underwear.
“I grabbed the L but I needed the M so Mitch did the stitch!” the Bellissima Wine founder explained.
Fans had plenty to say about Brinkley’s bare moment, like her daughter Alexa Ray Joel, who commented, “Mom… what’s happening here? 😹.”
“This woman just does not age ❤️” a fan added, while a third Instagram user wrote, “Still rockin those legs ❤️❤️.”
After her backstage alteration, Brinkley popped on a pair of red heels and headed on set to chat with Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager about her new fashion line, pronounced Tower Hill, which was inspired by her Hamptons estate of the same name.
Along with treating fans to an on-air fashion show featuring some of the line’s dresses, tops and pants, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model — who bared her toned abs in a birthday post earlier this year — opened up about turning 70 during her “Today” interview.
“Seventy, there is nothing to fear!” she exclaimed, adding, “You kind of don’t really care what other people think about you. You just have fun, you know?”
