Let’s dive into the full story behind this hilarious incident.
Oops! Savannah’s Fashion Mishap Goes Viral
After realizing her mistake mid-show, Savannah took to Instagram to share the lighthearted moment with her fans. In a playful post from January 30, she wrote, “Put my dress on backwards and too late to change it so now I’m like ➡️.” Accompanying her caption were two candid photos showing her struggling with her outfit. The post quickly gained traction, with fans flooding the comments section with supportive messages.

Reactions Pour In From Fans and Fellow Co-Workers
It didn’t take long for Savannah’s followers to jump into the comments section. One commenter wrote, “I’ve done it too!” Another chimed in, “It happens to the best of us. And now we know you are a normal, everyday busy mom human being.” Even her colleague Jill Martin got in on the fun, responding with a string of laughing emojis. But here’s the kicker: there’s a good reason why Savannah might have been distracted that day. Tennis legend Roger Federer, who happens to be one of Savannah’s close friends, lost at the Australian Open earlier that morning. Talk about a tough break!
During the broadcast, Savannah joked about her mix-up, saying, “So that happened. Maybe that’s why I dressed backward today! I was distracted. I’d been up since 3:30 a.m. watching the match.” Now, putting on a dress backward might seem like a big deal, but for Savannah, it’s nothing compared to some of the other challenges she’s faced recently.
A Tough Year for Savannah
Just weeks before her fashion mishap, Savannah revealed a much more serious incident during a live segment. On November 27, she explained how her young son, Charley, accidentally threw a toy train at her eye, causing a retinal tear. “Charley threw a toy train right at my eye, and it tore my retina,” she recounted on air. “It has a really sharp edge, and he threw it right at me.”

The situation turned out to be more severe than anyone initially thought. “It happened last week, actually, and then I lost my vision in my right eye about 24 hours later,” she continued. “It turned out to be kind of serious. They were afraid my retina would detach. They told me to just take it easy and they’ve been doing a bunch of laser procedures to avoid having to do the whole surgery. … I really did lose my vision in my right eye. It was so blurry—not to get too gross—but there was so much blood in my eye that it completely blocked my vision.”
Thankfully, Savannah is doing much better now, and it seems like her sense of humor remains as sharp as ever. These days, a backward dress feels like a walk in the park compared to what she’s been through!
