After indulging in a rare PDA with her man in front of the photographers, the singer appeared to be 'busting out' of her little black dress, which laced up at the front to cover her cleavage.

Climbing into the car to leave the restaurant, Carey was snapped slipping out of her dress, using her arms to cover her wardrobe malfunction.

Little did she know, her attempts to cover herself up were actually making things worse, exposing her assets even more to the waiting paparazzi.

Carey and and Packer - who proposed to the We Belong Together singer with a 35 carat diamond engagement ring - had dined together at Craig's restaurant in Los Angeles.

Despite leaving the restaurant in the early hours of the morning, the 46-year-old covered her eyes with a pair of giant black shades as she made her way to her car after dinner.
