Influencer suffers wardrobe malfunction in skimpy $69 bikini

A Gold Coast influencer aboard a “wild” party on a superyacht in Sydney Harbour exposed more than she bargained for in a $69 cossie.

'Why bother?': Shoppers baffled by tiny bikini

An influencer has unfortunately been let down by her skimpy cossie after the strappy red bikini exposed more than she bargained for.

Starlette Thynne, from the Gold Coast, Queensland, was among a gaggle of content creators who attended a lavish launch party for fashion e-tailer Hello Molly.

The affordable Australian clothing brand hosted a no-expense spared event on a superyacht in Sydney’s famous harbour to celebrate its new Carnaval Swim collection, with influencer attendees sporting various pieces from the line while frolicking on the water.

Unfortunately for poor Starlette, the sister of Australia’s most famous influencer Tammy Hembrow, her budget swimwear struggled to keep up with the “wild” festivities.

As the group of girls sipped on branded “fizz” and danced to music on board the extravagant vessel, pictures show Starlette had to cover her bust after suffering a nip slip.

The social media star, who has 206,000 followers on Instagram, was wearing the $69.95 “Hello Molly Sun and Samba swimsuit” when the wardrobe disaster occurred.

The risque swimming costume comes in a striking “chilli” red colour and features “cheeky cut” bottoms, and a sexy “slash” detail across the midriff.

Starlette endured the relatable mishap while appearing to lean over the boat’s banister to talk to friends on the lower deck.

However, she doesn’t appear to have let it dampen the day out, with pictures shared by Hello Molly showing Starlette posing alongside a string of other influencers.

Other well-known faces at the glitzy event included body positive influencer Ariella Nyssa and former Love Island Australia contestant Amelia Marni who flew in from London where she currently lives to attend the bash.

Amelia opted for a skimpy yellow G-string bikini, while Ariella had on the orange version, which retails for $65.90 for the top and bottoms when combined.

Former Big Brother Australia stars, sister’s Ariana and Taylor Wilcoxson, were also spotted on board the superyacht, with Ariana also rocking the same yellow bikini as Amelia, while Taylor chose to wear a white two-piece with a tropical pattern.
