The 30-year-old actress was in New York to promote her latest film, "Les Miserables", on Monday night when she inadvertently flashed her lady bits at waiting photographers.

Apparently thigh-high side-splits aren't all they're cracked up to be, as Anne struggled to gracefully climb out of the SUV she was riding in to the "Les Mis" premiere. Despite attempting to keep her knees together, Anne's Tom Ford black-caped dress revealed more than she bargained for, flashing red carpet paparazzi her lady parts.

Once safely on the red carpet, Anne also showed off her Tom Ford custom-made, vegan leather bondage boots. Tom made them on behalf of the actress who refuses to eat or wear animal products.

While the dark make-up and slick hair was a hit for Anne, the dress with cape, scoop back and thigh splits (combined with the boots) was more of fashion fail for the usually girly Anne.

Points for trying though Anne!
