Elizabeth Hurley, 53, sizzles in cutaway safety pin gown 25 years after wearing the original
ELIZABETH Hurley wows in a cutaway safety pin gown 25 years after wearing the original to the premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral.
The actress looked stunning in the updated version of the iconic Versace gown as she revealed she still had the 1994 gown that launched her career.
The 53-year-old displayed her age-defying beauty in a sizzling new shoot for the April Issue of Harper’s BAZAAR.
Speaking to the glossy magazine, the mum of one reflected on the night she wore the dress as she admitted she was “unprepared” for the reaction.
She said: “I was so unprepared for what happened that night.
“I urgently needed to find a dress to wear for Hugh’s premiere, and in those days I had no idea about fashion.
“I remember going to an office where they literally fished a dress out of a white plastic bag. I took it home and did my own hair and makeup, fighting Hugh for the mirror, which wasn’t even full-length, in our tiny one-bedroom flat.”
The rest, as they say, is history and Liz instantly grabbed the attention of the showbiz world.

Elizabeth, who dated screen star Hugh, 58, for 13 years until 2000, added: “It was all very unglamorous compared to how things get done these days.”
Looking incredible in the revamped version of the original dress for the shoot, Liz admitted she can still fit into the racy pin ensemble she wore nearly three decades ago.
The Bedazzled star said: “…Just because it still fits doesn’t mean I would wear it today — it wouldn’t be appropriate!”
