Anya Taylor-Joy went sexy and sultry for her latest look!
The 28-year-old actress strutted through New York City in a head-turning red-hot Mugler mini dress ahead of her appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colberton Wednesday, May 22. The body-hugging number, styled by Ryan Hastings from the designer's fall/winter 2024 line, featured slanted sleeves while the back had black horizontal lace-up straps, leaving her backside partially exposed.
Taylor-Joy rocked a long blonde high ponytail, red stilettos, and a metallic bracelet to complete the sexy look.
She's no stranger to showing off her versatility when it comes to fashion. Earlier this month, she donned a champagne Dior ball gown for the screening of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
The old Hollywood-glam look was accessorized with sparkly Tiffany & Co. earrings and a statement necklace. For this ensemble, she also wore a chic updo, adding a pop of color with red lipstick.

On May 2, Taylor-Joy switched things up even more when she pulled from the archives of Paco Rabanne's spring/summer 1996 collection for her appearance at the movie's Sydney, Australia, premiere. Styled by Hastings, her wardrobe touted an embellished gold and silver minidress and a matching headpiece decorated with pointed arrows. Her hair was tucked underneath the attention-grabbing headpiece and she wore clear slingback pumps on her feet.
Taylor-Joy has certainly come into her own since her younger days. She opened up about finding her confidence after being bullied for her looks.
She told Drew Barrymore in a 2022 appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show that her parents were to thank for helping her see past the negativity.

"I was very, very lucky with my parents because when I was bullied for my looks, my mom always said, 'You look at the inside of somebody, you look at the inside of somebody,'" she said at the time. "You don't look at class, you don't look at anything like that. You don't look at what they do for a job. It's just: 'Do you like that person's heart?'"
