Camila Cabello's Met Gala dress RIPS exposing her nude underwear as she heads to her hotel so she can change into another look for the after parties

Camila Cabello suffered a serious wardrobe malfunction after the Met Gala on Monday evening in New York City.

The star flashed her nude-toned underwear when her shimmering gold dress had ripped up the slit.

The panties looked to be tiny bicycle shorts that could be seen after she pulled the dress back as if she was flashing someone on purpose. 

She was walking through a lobby with a woman in a black-and-white dress behind her.

Later, when Camila walked outdoors, she used a gold clutch purse to cover up the rip.

'It was so embarrassing for her on fashion's biggest night but she handled it with ease and just laughed it off,' an eyewitness tells DailyMail.com. 'She was not going to let anything ruin her night.' 

When at the Met Gala, the siren held onto a clutch purse that was made of ice with a gold rose in the middle. According to Vogue, the flower was reminiscent of the one on the Met Gala invitation for the event which had the theme Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.

Later, at a Met Gala after party, Cabello was seen in a black leather dress while she chatted up Lil Nas X.

This comes just as she shared the news that she will release her new album C, XOXO next month.

The Havana hitmaker has unveiled the release date and covert art for her upcoming fourth solo album - her first since 2022's Familia, which featured a close up photo of her face as she licks a blue lollipop.

Announcing the news on Instagram, she simply wrote: 'THE NEW ALBUM C, XOXO IS OUT JUNE 28TH.'

The LP will include her recent single I Luv It, which features Playboi Carti.

Although fans are still waiting for a tracklist and firm details about the record, Camila did recently open up about her approach for making a collection of songs.

She told the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast: 'It's really sitting in the discomfort of things and realising there's not gonna be a neat, in-a-box answer.

'I feel strong in these ways, weak in these ways, and there's no real clear answer here.'

However, she has embraced the process as a 'journey', and for the upcoming album that meant rediscovering what first sparked her love for songwriting.

She added: 'But the album process has been such a journey.

'It started out with me having that intention of going back to how it started for me, which was just sitting with myself and really getting back to that first passion of songwriting.

'Nerding out over references and artists and poetry — whatever — and really tapping into that.'

Camila has also teased the 'hyper-femme' persona she tapped into for the album.

Speaking to PAPER magazine, she said: 'Six months [into recording], we had a couple songs and [I realised], 'Oh, this is a character.'

'It became a persona that I was tapping into, which was me, but definitely a hyper-femme version of me.

'[I started to ask:] What are the colour palettes of the world this character inhabits? What's her hair? What's photography like there?'
