Oscars 2013: Jennifer Lawrence falls over Dior gown 'That was embarrassing': Best Actress winner Jennifer Lawrence takes a tumble as she collects her award at the 2013 Oscars. TelegraphPlayer_TMG9891873 Is it appropriate to feel sorry for Jennifer Lawrence today? The Silver Linings Playbook actress took home the Best Actress Oscar last night on her second attempt at the most coveted prize in acting, and she's only 22 (eat your heart out Helena Bonham Carter), so it's safe to say she won't be feeling too sorry for herself when she wakes up. But she probably will be having a good old cringe at her latest wardrobe malfunction. Actually, here's another teaser. Can you call a fall a wardrobe malfunction when the unsteady protagonist trips over a dress of bridal proportions, or should it be an actress malfunction? READ: Jennifer Lawrence makes Miss Dior debut This is the second time poor young Jennifer has come a cropper in Dior - the label which has recently signed her as the face of their Miss Dior handbag line - after the 'hitching' incident at the SAG Awards in which everyone thought she had torn her gown, but hadn't, okay? Newsflash: Jennifer Lawrence's Dior gown did not rip at the SAG Awards As she swept up the staircase to the stage to collect her statuette, she was literally swept off her feet. Clutching her head in her hands at the sheer mortification of the moment, the starlet was given a standing ovation by the audience, which she duly thanked for their camaraderie. "Thank you so much," she told them. This is nuts. You guys are only standing up because I fell and you feel bad. That was embarrassing. One thing's for certain however, we shouldn't waste any time feeling sorry for Dior. The storied Parisian couture house pulled an absolute blinder signing Lawrence as their latest face back last October before Silver Linings Playbook had even been released, and way before her stack of awards season nominations started rolling in. Even without all those front page pictures of her beaming and clutching her latest accolade in one of designer Raf Simons' creations (she's worn nothing else all season), the extra coverage garnered due to Lawrence's adorable clumsiness has guaranteed the column inches stretch a mile further. If ever there was a house that knows there's no such thing as bad publicity (sales famously soared following the John Galliano scandal), it's Dior. If we didn't know better, we would almost wonder if Jennifer's 'malfunctions' weren't etched ino her contract...
