The TikToker andDancing with the Starsalum, 25, attendedVanity Fair's Oscars afterparty on March 15. She was a lady in red in a wine-colored Bob Mackie halter gown from the designer's Fall/Winter 2001, perTab Vintage, which is where her stylist Mimi Cuttrell sourced it from.
But at some point, the sample dress was sort of hanging by a thread, and she toldEntertainment Tonightthat she had to ask someone for a knife "because one of the beading things started coming undone" right before her photo op. When she pulled at it, all the beads started falling off. "We just sliced it a little."
The rest of her look stayed intact, and that included her jewelry, which was designed by Kendra Scott. Her collection of bling included the lab-grown Elisa Drop Earrings and custom Elisa rings stacked with three Marilyn bands.
With the blunder resolved, Earle said she had plans to maybe get "someone's number" into her phone during the night. "I could meet someone," she joked.
Her comments come one month after she waslinked to Tom Bradyfollowing hersplit from Braxton Berrios, whom she dated for over two years, in late 2025.

A source told PEOPLE in February that Earle and Brady, who was previously married to Gisele Bündchen, were "hooking up." However, Earle also opened up about seeing Berrios, a wide receiver for the Houston Texans, for thefirst time after their breakup.
"It's weird when you go from someone being like your best friend to being a stranger in the corner of the room," she said, likely referring to the Palm Tree Pre-Party they both attended in February. "So that was tough. And by tough, I mean terrible."
However, Earle has been thriving and channeling her single girl era through her fashion. She divided the internet with a recent outfit of hers that featured a$48,000 shearling numberbyGucci. She's also full steam ahead on anew reality show with her family, which she announced in January.
