Joan Collins Taken To Hospital Thanks To Too-Tight Dress (PHOTOS)

All in the name of fashion! Joan Collins left Sunday night's Vanity Fair Oscars party in an ambulance, thanks to a too-tight dress, Page Six reports.

The 77-year-old legend began to feel faint at 10 p.m. and, ultimately, 911 was called. Joan was taken to an area hospital where a bunch of tests were run but nothing turned up. She told the gossip column,"The truth was, I made the wrong decision to wear a very tight dress, and had something rather like a Victorian swoon. The good news is, I am in good health and feel fine today."

Take a look at what Joan wore -- the embellished gown fits her like a glove. No word on who made it.

It was probably due to the Spanx. They do rely on squeezing the body very snug. Assumes body fat and internal organs are very compressible.

Seems like Joan is into tight lacing.

Why do these pictures make her look more full figured then suddenly skinny? The third picture doesn't look real.

Problem: Not one pair but two pair of spanx. Don't do it.

The president's plan to rebuild America's infrastructure seems to have commenced with this mile of bad highway.

Tight clothing should be banned. Be free, be loose.

She looks great for 77, but not quite as good as Sophia Loren.
