Windswept: Kate Hudson's dress gets caught up in a gust as she walks the red carpet at the premiere of The Killer Inside Me in New York


Kate Hudson was left fighting for her modesty following an unfortunate gust of wind on the red carpet in New York last night.

The actress had chosen to wear a thigh-skimming Louis Vuitton little black dress for her appearance at the premiere of her new film The Killer Inside Me at the Tribeca Film Festival.

But she ended up exposing far more than she had intended after the dress blew up in the breeze, inadvertently recreating Marilyn Monroe's famous Seven Year Itch scene.

Luckily her co-star Jessica Alba was on hand to help, diving in quickly to pull the hemline down.

Kate, who turned 31 last week, had earlier turned heads as she arrived at the School of Visual Arts Theatre in a stylish black and white poncho, also designed by Louis Vuitton.

Her hair was styled into a glamorous retro do, with strong make-up to match and a pair of patent pumps by Brian Atwood - finished off with jewels by Cartier.

Jessica, 29, also took a step back in time, seemingly influenced by the sixties with her bohemian ensemble consisting of a sheer white lightly-pleated maxi dress by Chloe matched with dark-coloured strappy heels and a cream handbag.

Alba's hair fitted in with the hippy style of her dress, and she wore several chains round her neck to complete the look.

Kate told U.S. website Entertainment Tonight that her six-year-old son Ryder gave her last-minute fashion advice for the red carpet.

She said: 'He is very, very, very particular about the things that he likes, and he's very vocal about when he doesn't like something I'm wearing.'

The Killer Inside Me follows a charming, unassuming small town sheriff's deputy (played by Casey Affleck) juggling his long-term girlfriend (Hudson) and a prostitute (Alba) he falls for while grappling with the sociopathic tendencies inside him

The controversial film takes place in West Texas during the 1950s and is based on Jim Thompson's pulp novel.

In January, the Toronto Sun reported that many cinema-goers left the first screening at the 1,200-seat Eccles Theatre at the Sundance Film Festival after being disturbed by the gory sex scenes and the sado-masochistic violence.

Alba herself raised a few eyebrows when she left midway through the premiere.

In the film's most graphic scene, Affleck dons a pair of black leather gloves and repeatedly punches Alba's character in the face until it's a bloody pulp.

But both actresses have defended the movie and praised director Michael Winterbottom for staying true to the original novel.

Hudson said: 'This is my third movie with Casey... so I immediately felt excited about having an opportunity to do that again. And it's such a great role for Casey, and it was an interesting role for me - just really meaty scenes, you know, different and dark.'

Alba, meanwhile, spoke of her excitement at working with the director.

She said: 'I've done a lot of movies that are big and commercial and I just really wanted to work with Michael Winterbottom. This was purely a creative decision.'

And the British also defended his film, after he was criticised during a question and answer session at Sundance earlier this year.

He told reporters: 'The violence is shocking in the book and it’s shocking in the film. It’s not a police procedural.

'The story is being told by someone who’s crazy. The story is the way he tells it and sees it, not the way it happened. The film has no sense of pleasure in the violence.'
