Laverne Cox sure knows how to work the red carpet.

The “Orange Is the New Black” star attended the 2015 amfAR Inspiration Gala in New York City on Tuesday night, and let’s just say she shut it down.

Wearing a revealing black dress, which featured a plunging neckline, cutouts, and a thigh-high slit, the actress looked absolutely stunning. She paired the gown with a small black clutch and a pair of studded black pumps, and wore her honey-blond hair down in loose waves.

The burgeoning style icon and trans activist finished off the sexy look with sultry, smoky eye makeup and and groomed brows.

Earlier in the week, Cox took a break from the glitz and glam to meet an adorable 7-year-old transgender girl named M. The actress exchanged hugs with the young girl and offered a beautiful piece of advice: “Remember, honey, transgender is beautiful.”

Our love for her just keeps on growing.
