Emma Stone isn’t done talking about her 2024 Oscars wardrobe malfunction.
The Poor Things star, 35, won her second Academy Award on March 10, and when she accepted her statuette for Best Actress onstage, she told the audience that the back zipper of her custom mint Louis Vuitton peplum gown had broken (she was “sewed back” into the dress after).
“I think it happened during 'I'm Just Ken.’ I’m pretty sure,” Stone jokingly blamed friend Ryan Gosling, who sang the Barbie hit earlier in the night.
A couple of weeks have passed, but Stone still thinks Gosling's performance would’ve done a number on her and her dress, no matter what.

“I made a big deal about busting the zipper, but it really was my fault,” Stone admitted to The Hollywood Reporter in its 2024 Power Stylists issue. “I would have busted the most industrial zipper on the planet during ‘I’m Just Ken.’ ”
Stone’s longtime stylist Petra Flannery also chimed in on the “now-famous” incident in the joint interview, saying that Stone handled the malfunction with “grace and elegance.”

For the bespoke pastel gown, and many of Stone's award show looks, the duo, who’ve been working together for 17 years, drew inspiration from Stone’s Poor Things role.
“I loved Petra’s idea with Louis Vuitton to create a bunch of pins for Bella Baxter,” Stone told The Hollywood Reporter, “which I wore on a lot of the looks, as did [Poor Things director] Yorgos [Lanthimos] on his suits.”

The pair also agrees that the Oscars design was their favorite out of Stone’s awards season looks — but that’s not to discount her other glamorous ensembles seen throughout the months-long circuit.

Flannery pulled together a mighty collection of dreamy and romantic gowns for Stone’s many red carpet appearances.
For the 2024 Golden Globes, she dressed Stone in a fairytale champagne Louis Vuitton gown covered in rose adornments, only to swing in a complete opposite direction for the SAG Awards, at which Stone glittered in a backless intricately-beaded silver gown with a mini train, also by the French fashion house.
After the Oscars, Stone made a quick-change for Vanity Fair's star-studded afterparty, where she posed in a shimmery sheer asymmetrical Louis Vuitton dress (with her trophy in hand, of course).
