Rachel Zegler experienced one of those infamous wardrobe malfunctions at Sunday’s Critics Choice Awards — and was lucky enough to have Lady Gaga and two of the Haim sisters on hand to come to her rescue.
Zegler, who received a nomination for her role in Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story”, dazzled on the red carpet in a custom-made green Christian Dior gown, accented by Dior shoes, a Tyler Ellis clutch and Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
Zegler took to Twitter to reveal that her “dress broke last night and lady gaga, este haim, and alana haim all banded together to temporarily fix it with a hairpin,” she wrote, adding, “and I think that’s beautiful.”

That wasn’t Zegler’s only interaction with Gaga; in another tweet, she shared a video of herself and the “House of Gucci” star chatting.
