Jennifer Hudson mars an otherwise sensational outfit with unsightly sweat patch at premiere of her new film

From badly applied make-up to wardrobe malfunctions, red carpet faux pas are easy enough to make even for the most veteran of celebrities.
And on Friday Jennifer Hudson made a rookie error as she attended the Chicago International Film Festival in an otherwise stunning appearance.
The 32-year-old appeared to have forgotten to apply her deodorant as she sported a rather embarrassing sweat stain in the armpit area of her dress at the premiere of her new film The Inevitable Defeat Of Mister And Pete.

Rookie error! Jennifer Hudson looks amazing as she attends the Chicago International Film Festival on Friday but her appearance is marred somewhat by an unfortunate sweat stain on the armpit of her dress

The mishap was all the more unfortunate because the Dreamgirls star looked spectacular in a slinky slate grey dress with ruched detail and a wrap around design at
the front.
The figure-hugging dress showed off the mother-of-one's fabulous figure to full effect, highlighting her slim waist and toned arms.
She teamed the flattering cocktail dress with a simple pair of strappy black sandals.

Jennifer looked immaculate with her dark locks worn loose in bouncing curls and a perfectly made-up face with smoky eye make-up and pink lips.
The actress' new film, an urban drama, centers around two young boys from the Brooklyn projects who are left to fend for themselves on the streets after their unreliable parents are arrested.

Tillman Jr, who also directed Soul Food and Notorious, was not only present for the premiere of his latest film but was also honoured with a Career Achievement award at the Chicago event.
