LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Did Jennifer Lopez’s Oscar dress 2012 result in a slip or wardrobe malfunction? Absolutely not, says Jennifer Lopez’ stylist. Jennifer Lopez did not reveal what other news reports claimed slipped out during her Oscars 2012 appearance. Rather, Lopez’ dress was designed to create that illusion.

Jennifer Lopez’s dress (photo HERE) was a Zuhair Murad gown. Lopez’s stylist Mariel Haenn tells news that reports about a slip are simply erroneous. Haenn claims that a slip wouldn’t be possible because of the dress’ construction, its underlay design, and its safety measures in structure. Moreover, Haen tells news that what might have appeared to be a slip, or dubbed “sheer” in other news reports, is all the result of a style illusion.

Haen tells news that “The dress fit perfectly to her every inch. There were cups built in and there’s no chance that there were any, how do you say, slips. “

Haenn added “While the dress did give the illusion of sheer-ness, joke’s on everyone who wishes they saw something! If you thought that dress was hot wait until you see what’s next.”

Farrah Fawcett was left out of the Oscar memorial on purpose. Farrah Fawcett was skipped in the Oscar memorial not by accident confirms the Academy Awards Monday.

Leslie Unger, spokeswoman for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, says to E!:

“I would not say that it was an oversight. No matter how carefully and how conscientiously people address who is included, there are people who just simply can’t be.”

Can’t be? Unger tells E!:

“In any given year there will always be some people that other people think should have been included and that there’s more justification for one person versus another. It is impossible to include everybody.”
