Elizabeth Hurley reveals all in a see-through sari

She has a legacy of wearing revealing dresses and at the age of 44, Elizabeth Hurley outdid herself when she attended a charity fundraiser in a see-through sari.

With Indian textile heir husband Arun Nayar on her arm, the actress posed happily for the cameras at the Love Ball charity fundraiser in a dazzling blue sari.

The mother of one left nothing to the imagination in the ensemble, showing she still has the voluptuous figure to carry off even the most risque of numbers.

But it was unclear whether the revealing nature of her outfit was a sheer accident or intentional.

Sixteen years on from wearing the jaw-dropping Versace gown held together by safety pins, which became known as ‘that dress’, Hurley is still managing to make headlines with her outfits.

At the time the brunette was dating actor Hugh Grant, and joined him for the 1994 premiere of “Four Weddings And A Funeral”.

Yesterday too, Hurley was among a host of stars including supermodel Kate Moss and singer Leona Lewis, but outshone them all with her choice of outfit.

"I was riding side saddle with this 400 pound costume on and I always carried around this Bulgarian body guard. It had been raining and we rode up this muddy embankment and suddenly the horse was being temperamental”, said the actress.

"The horse reared up and I felt majestic on top and he started to roll over on one side," she added.

Johansson said she felt she would die until her bodyguard came to her rescue.

"I thought for sure this was going to crush my legs and out of nowhere my Bulgarian bodyguard flew in and stop, dropped, and he rolled, and he carried me sailing through the air! I knew he would save my life one day, and he did," she said.
