What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorHeidi Klum, the Queen of Halloween, hit the InStyle Imagemaker Awards in a tattered, stained lace corset gown, and the New York Post says it looks like it survived a shipwreck.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI have reviewed the photos. The gown has water damage, loose threads and what I'd call a structural concern at the hem.

  3. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThat's the whole look, Hank! She dressed for spooky season, and the ruin is the craftsmanship. Somebody worked very hard on those stains.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSomebody worked hard. I file that under claims.
