WAG Jessica Edwards grabbed the spotlight as she walked the red carpet at the Brownlow Medal on Monday night, but not for the reasons she hoped.
The social media star, 26, flaunted much more than she bargained for as she arrived in a sheer purple gown on the arm of her boyfriend, St Kilda player Jack Sinclair.
The bright lights in the Crown Melbourne created an awkward gaffe which saw the YouTube sensation’s nipple cover put on display as it reflected a camera flash.
Jessica was all smiles as she posed with her beau, unaware of the fashion faux pas which could be seen just beneath the cowl neck of her gown.
Her nude briefs could also be seen beneath the thin, sheer material, though it appears that at least was the function of the Rat & Boa dress, which retails for $430.
The lifestyle vlogger accessorised her racy look with a pair of strappy black heels and simple pieces of gold jewellery.
Opting for a smoky eye look and nude lip, she then pulled her brunette tresses back into a sleek bun, leaving out a few face framing pieces.
Meanwhile, partner Jack, 29, looked stoked to be attending AFL’s night of nights as he donned a smart black and white tuxedo.

It comes as Carlton captain Patrick Cripps won his second AFL Brownlow Medal, polling a record 45 votes to claim the honour convincingly on Monday night.
The 29-year-old is the first player to win two Brownlows playing for Carlton, after he also won the game’s most prestigious individual honour two years ago.
Cripps had an unbeatable lead with four rounds left and Collingwood’s Nick Daicos finished second on 38, while Port Adelaide’s Zak Butters polled 29 for third.
After three years of tight finishes, it is the most emphatic win since the Brisbane Lions’ Lachie Neale won the first of his two Brownlows by 10 in the COVID-shortened 2020 season.

Daicos, who was the second favourite behind Cripps, also broke the old votes record of 36, jointly held previously by Richmond’s Dustin Martin (2017) and Port Adelaide’s Ollie Wines (2021).
Cripps gave a nod to his fellow record-breaker after the win: ‘Crazy night mate. I’d like to start off by mentioning Nick, he also broke the record tonight. Nick, I love watching you play, I love playing against you. Congratulations on an amazing year.
‘So many guys have had great years. I knew it was my most consistent year, there were a few errors I needed to work on. It’s the most games I’ve played. You never know, Brownlow night, that’s what makes it so exciting.
‘I’m super grateful to be up here, it’s not something I take lightly,’ he finished.
