The 52-year-old fashion designer explained to a follower on Instagram that he accidentally posted the revealing shot of his bare butt on the social media site while chatting up a fellow hottie.

“Yeah. I accidentally posted a pic of my bare ass and took it down,” he explained. “I was flirting with someone I met on Instagram. Meant to send it by DM. Oops, my mistake. I apologize to anyone it offended. I'm a gay man. I flirt and chat with guys online sometimes. BIG DEAL!"

The photo, which revealed a bit more than just his derriere if you know what we mean, went viral after it hit the app with the caption: “It’s yours to try!”

His fans, however, didn’t seem to mind his faux pas.
