Sarah Jessica Parker makes last minute adjustments as she struggles to stay in her short, tight strapless dress

Sarah Jessica Parker was forced to make emergency adjustments to her figure-hugging dress as she made her way down the red carpet in London last night.

The actress, who was at the premiere of her new movie Did You Hear About The Morgans?, was spotted hoicking up the front of her hot pink mini.

As SJP, who tottered along in Charlotte Olympia platforms, nearly exposed herself to photographers as she rearranged the front of her fuchsia dress,.

She was also seen smoothing down the rear of her super short L'Wren Scott jacquard mini.

She was joined at the premiere by her co-star Hugh Grant, who at one point placed his hand a daringly long way down the small of SJP's back.

Grant, who is nearing 50, was accompanied by his close friend and former girlfriend Liz Hurley, who like SJP wore a pink and red minidress.

The new film sees Grant reunited with SJP for the first time since they starred in 1996 movie Extreme Measures.

The actors play a couple on the verge of divorce, who are forced into setting up a new life after they witness a murder and a contract is put on their lives.

They move from the hustle and bustle of New York, to the relative calm and tranquility of a small town in Wyoming.

SJP, 44, is currently dividing her time between caring for her newborn surrogate twins and filming scenes for the second Sex And The City movie.

But she managed to fit in the trip to London on top of her commitments.

SJP recently expressed regrets about her huge workload.

She said: 'It's been very different than when James (her son) arrived, since our family expanded in an untraditional way.

'We didn't plan on having two, but were doubly blessed, and it's been just wonderful.

'[Tabitha and Marion] just turned four months old.

'One would prefer to be held 24 hours a day, and the other is already suffering from type A issues.  

'It's been amazing but complicated because of my current work schedule, which I have enormous regrets about.'
