Overview

  • A gust of wind on the Dolby Theatre red carpet sent the thigh-high slit of Vonn’s strapless Elisabetta Franchi gown billowing open and exposed her black thong
  • Someone rushed to her aid on the carpet to help cover the malfunction before she entered the ceremony
  • Inside the awards show she changed into a silver fringe-beaded gown with a sheer skirt for her on-stage appearance
  • Vonn was nominated for Best Comeback Athlete but the trophy went to gymnast Suni Lee
  • She has since turned her attention back to rigorous training as she prepares for the 2026 Winter Games in Milan
