TOP Boy star Adwoa Aboah looked sensational as she glammed up for the Vanity Fair Oscars party on Sunday.
Model-turned-actress Adwoa, who stars as Jaq’s new love interest, Becks, in the fourth series of cult hit drama, looked worlds apart from her Netflix character.
The 29-year-old star dazzled in a sheer plunging gown which featured an asymmetric cut-out detail that exposed her toned abs and cleavage.
Ensuring all eyes were on her as she arrived at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, Adwoa went braless which left little to the imagination.
The strappy silver number hugged her figure and showed off her trim waist and endless pins.

The actress styled her tresses in loose mermaid waves and opted for a subtle makeup palette with a peach lip.
She completed the elegant ensemble with a pair of silver heels and some sparkly earrings.
Adwoa’s character was introduced to the Netflix series as Jac’s love interest – the pair meet at a bar for a first date.
She opened up about the homophobic attack scene saying it was “emotionally taxing”.
In episode two, the pair lean in for a kiss after their date but are targeted by a group of men who mock them for being “perverts”.
Jac hits back and pushes one of the men as she demands they leave them alone, but she’s slammed to the ground and is punched while Becks’ bag is stolen.

“I was not aware of how emotionally taxing it was to do a scene like that,” Adwoa told the Metro.
“What I found really challenging is that I had to sit in a very dark place that day when I filmed those particular scenes just so that I could get there.”
She added: “It was very emotionally taxing. I was just exhausted to be quite honest.”

The TV star said she was convinced that she had messed up her final call back, revealing that she was going through some “personal things” at the same time as the audition.
Despite being “nervous”, Adwoa impressed show bosses and bagged the role.
Top Boy is available to watch on Netflix.
