Margot Robbie wows at IFP Gotham Awards in NYC, seemingly stumbling in five-inch stilettos during her grand entrance.

She is an wildly successful actress who is known for her glamorous and dazzling ensembles.

But Margot Robbie turned heads for an altogether different reason as she made an animated entrance into the 27th IFP Gotham Awards at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City on Monday.

The Wolf of Wall Street star, 27, looked impossibly glamorous as she arrived in a dark green glittery one-shoulder gown and vertiginous stiletto heels, but appeared to lose her balance as she was greeting fans, causing one toned leg to buckle awkwardly.

Pulling a shocked expression as she felt herself falling backwards, the blonde beauty seemed to call out in horror.

Recovering her balance, Margot pulled a downcast expression as she covered her face with her hand and quickly walked into the venue.

The Suicide Squad star could at least take comfort in the fact that her ensemble for the evening was undoubtedly a style hit.

Her glittery gown hugged her trim physique while a daring thigh-high split showed off her toned legs.
