Braless Selena Gomez suffers a double wardrobe malfunction in a translucent LBD during dinner date with The Weeknd in NYC

She rarely puts a fashion foot wrong. But The Weeknd, 27, may have struggled to concentrate on his steak tartare after his girlfriend Selena Gomez decided to go braless in a semi-sheer black gown when they headed out for a meal in New York on Tuesday.

The saucy popstrel, 24, certainly stood out in the racy asymmetric dress, which clung to her curves perfectly- but suffered an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction when it went translucent under the spotlight.

The figure-hugging frock skimmed her toned curves perfectly, and featured a pretty glitter-encrusted strap to one side However the thin material proved particularly susceptible to the flashlights, and became transparent under the click of the cameras.

And to make matters worse, as she clambered into the waiting car following her dinner date with her beau, she suffered the same fate.

With the dress becoming completely see-through, Selena’s thong-clad pert posterior was on full display as she exited the venue.

But apart from the embarrassing display, Selena put on an otherwise well put-together appearance. The dress featured a high-low hemline, and an asymmetric slant  showcasing her toned pins.

Wearing her brunette locks in a sleek high ponytail, the stunning beauty accentuated her almond eyes with statement eyeliner and opted for nude lips.

Elongating her pins with a pair of stiletto heels, she held onto her  beau as they appeared more loved up than ever.
