Paris — At Paris' high-octane couture week, what happens on the catwalk is only half the story.
Academy Award winner Goldie Hawn and her daughter Kate Hudson made a surprise appearance at Atelier Versace in an a typical family night out in Paris.
But the real frenzy didn't start until the 35-year-old Almost Famous star turned her back to the paparazzi.
What was revealed — a very daringly-placed Versace cut-out — was a fashion coup that Donatella could definitely be proud of...
Underwear is so passé (ask Rihanna) and Hudson's was the latest name added to the list of stars to forgo underwear in the name of fashion.
The Oscar-nominated actress triggered hysteria by posing in a bright red cocktail dress from the new Atelier Versace Spring 2015 Collection with a cutout that demurely exposed her buttocks.
Her mother dressed more prudently in a black long sleeve cocktail dress with crystal zipper details from this year's Versace Resort.
Hawn didn't let her 69 years get in the way of a good time — and was later seen hanging out with Donatella at the after party at which singer Ellie Goulding performed.
