Classically sexy: Laverne Cox set the style - and sexiness - bar high at the 2015 amfAR Inspiration Gala in New York on Tuesday night
Sometimes the old is far better than the new.
Laverne Cox set the style - and sexiness - bar high at the 2015 amfAR Inspiration Gala in New York on Tuesday night.
The
Orange Is The New Black stepped out in a shop stopping floor length
gown which gave Angelina Jolie's famous Oscar thigh split dress a run
for its money.
The 31-year-old was the definition of red hot glamour in the very saucy black dress which featured not only an impressive split but also a plunging neckline with key hole cut outs.
Showing plenty of cleavage - and some underboob to boot - Laverne more than did her part in steaming up the red carpet.
While her look may have been rather risque, the Netflix breakout star kept her look on the right side of classy by accessorising conservatively.

The star went without any earrings or a necklace wearing a simple gold cuff on one arm and two gold bangles on another.

The star's fame is already being recognised worldwide and last week Madame Tussauds announced the actress will be the first transgender person to be immortalized in wax by the famed museum.
'I am so deeply honored to have been asked to be part of the Madame Tussauds legacy,' Laverne said in a statement.
She went on: 'When I think about being who I am, a black trans woman from a working class background raised in Mobile, Alabama, this honor feels even more improbable and extraordinary.'
