Sara Foster Laughs Off Spanx Mishap at 2026 Critics Choice Awards
Sara Foster narrowly avoided a wardrobe malfunction at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards.
Foster, 44, who is the cocreator of Nobody Wants This, opened up to E! about the fashion faux pas she nearly experienced at the awards show. While stepping onto the red carpet, which took place at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, on Sunday, January 4, Foster revealed that a photographer pointed out that her Spanx were showing through the thigh-high slit on her Monique Lhuillier dress.
“Gotta love him!” she exclaimed to E!’s red carpet host Keltie Knight. Foster’s white dress featured a mock neck, long sleeves and a fitted bodice that cascaded into a cinched waist with gold hardware and a long, flowy skirt that revealed her leg. Foster made her look even more glamorous with gold strappy heels, delicate rings and diamond earrings.
For glam, she donned a full beat including bronzed skin, contoured cheeks, filled-in eyebrows, smokey eyeshadow, long lashes and pink, glossy lips. Her blonde highlighted hair was pulled back into a half-up hairdo with her ends curled.
While chatting with E!, Foster also shared that she almost wore the dress to the 2025 Golden Globe Awards last January. “I was like, ‘I want to bring that back,’” she said. She noted that fans can even pick up their own Monique Lhuillier dress — which her team pointed out before she wore it. “They’re like, ‘It’s online, people can buy it.’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t care.’”
While getting her photo taken, Sara made sure to snap a few pics with her sister and Nobody Wants This cocreator Erin Foster, who looked chic in a brown ensemble featuring a black beaded top complete with halter straps and a bodycon silk skirt.
Erin, 43, added a touch of sparkle to her look with diamond angling earrings, which she matched with silver sparkly eyeshadow tapped onto her lids. The rest of her makeup included dewy skin, contoured cheeks, long lashes, filled-in eyebrows and pink lips. Her blonde hair was parted down the middle and styled in an updo with her front pieces left out and curled. The duo wrapped their arms around each other while posing for a photo.

Sara isn’t the only star who opened up about wanting to avoid a wardrobe malfunction. Sheryl Lee Ralph shared how she ensures that her feet won’t be in pain while wearing heels all night long.
“When you’re coming down the red carpet, it’s not time for little hiccups and your shoes, sometimes they don’t fit properly,” the Abbott Elementary star shared with E! “First of all, I live by lidocaine, if the shoe even has the possibility of being uncomfortable. And then I spray the shoe with spray adhesive, get my foot in and there is no flip-floppage.”
