Making a boob of herself! Two Pints Of Lager star Natalie Casey goes braless in a sheer dress to theatre awards
|
She may have been covered up from head-to-toe in a conservative high-necked Victorian-style dress.
But Natalie Casey gave fellow attendees a little more than they bargained for by going braless in her sheer black gown at the Whatsonstage Theatregoers' Choice Awards at London's Palace Theatre on Sunday night.
Leaving very little to the imagination with her see-through dress, the Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps fell victim to the glare of the photographers' flash bulb as she posed up a storm on the red carpet.

Fashion faux pas: Natalie Casey gave attendees more than they bargained for by going braless as she attended the Whatsonstage Theatregoers' Choice Awards on Sunday night
Proudly posing away as she prepared to enter the star-studded awards ceremony, the former soap star was unaware that she was flashing far much more flesh than intended.
Natalie evidently thought she was opting for a conservative choice with her high-necked, drop-waist Victorian-style dress, which feaured billowing sleeves and a full, flowing skirt.
But the star drew even more attention to her fashion faux pas with her dark locks scraped back off her face into a tight bun, and metallic strappy sandals adding height to her frame.

The actress completed her look with simple make-up and a slick of rouge lipstick as she joined the likes of former Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps co-star Sheridan Smith and Spice Girls singer Melanie Chisholm on the red carpet.
However, Natalie's style fail was unlikely to have bothered her too much, seeing as she took home the gong for Best Supporting Actress in a Play for her role as Angela in the Menier Chocolate Factory's revival of Mike Leigh classic Abigail's Party.
The star led a number of attendees at the awards ceremony who opted for fairly daring ensembles, with Jennifer Ellison choosing a striking backless lace number and Danielle Hope parading her curves in a tight-fitting grey dress by Agent Provocateur.
