The Lebanese jewelry designer shared the dramatic moment on social media, posting images and video of herself crouched at the base of the escalator as staff worked to free the hem of her dress.
In the clip, Getty lamented the situation, saying 'It's such a beautiful dress!' as helpers tried to pry the fabric loose. She later described the ordeal as far more hectic than anticipated, joking about the chaos in a caption that simply read 'The DRAMA.'
Getty attended the ceremony as an executive producer of the docudrama The Voice Of Hind Rajab, which had been nominated for Best International Feature Film. Despite the wardrobe malfunction, the socialite and mother of two appeared to take the incident in stride, turning the fashion emergency into a memorable Oscars moment.
