Actor Dakota Johnson showed her professional "show must go on" chops recently when she handled an awkward wardrobe moment with the greatest of ease.

Johnson was on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday to promote her new film Daddio when she became the latest star to suffer a wardrobe malfunction—though thankfully she was able to rescue her dress before it got too out of hand.

Johnson and Kimmel were chit-chatting when one of Johnson's dress straps suddenly broke and fell down. But the actor was unfazed.

After showing a clip from Daddio, the cameras returned to Kimmel and Johnson to find the latter awkwardly gripping her dress with both hands.

Kimmel of course couldn't help but comment on it, quipping to the actor:

“Part of your dress just came unhooked. You all right? Should I get some Scotch Tape?"

Johnson replied that it "just fell off" and after she and Kimmel exchanged a few words on what to do, they landed on Johnson simply holding her dress together with her hands in a delightfully awkward way as Kimmel told her to "just hold the important part."

But Johnson was keen not to let the moment just slide by. She grabbed both breasts in a comical way while trying to soldier on talking about the film as the audience erupted into laughter and applause.

It couldn't have been a better lead-in to the pair's next conversation topic: the auditions for a "d*ck pic" that appears in the film.

On YouTube, people were loving this hilariously awkward moment and Johnson's game approach to the mishap.
