No matter what the occasion or what type of outfit is required, Emily Ratajkowski knows how to make an impression.
At a recent event hosted by Marie Claire, the 25-year-old model stunned onlookers with a shimmering red dress that emphasized all the right curves and showed off massive amounts of leg, all while achieving the glamorous look of a red carpet gown.

Considered one of the hottest models currently in the industry, Ratajkowski has been one of the most sought-after names in the industry for years.
Despite her domination of the fashion industry, Ratajkowski still has hopes of transition her success into a more lucrative career.
The model might have made a name for herself thanks to how good she looks in a variety of different outfits, but the defining moment in her career was the result of how much clothing she was willing to drop.
In 2013, Robin Thicke tapped her to star in the music video for his hit single “Blurred Lines,” which was one of the hottest songs of the year. To match how hot the song was, Ratajkowski danced, stripped, and gyrated her way through the sexy music video, earning her lots of attention.
The video was so salacious, in fact, that the original version needed to be censored to meet YouTube’s standards, forcing the musician to release a censored and uncensored version online.

Following the success of “Blurred Lines,” Ratajkowski was inundated with offers to star in a variety of films and TV shows, most notably the Entourage movie and the Ben Affleck-starring Gone Girl. In the thriller, Ratajkowski starred as a seductive student who was engaged in an affair with Affleck’s character, whose wife had gone missing. The role required the actress to once again embrace her sexy side, as she had to appear both seductive and innocent, conveying a love for Affleck’s character without ever appearing villainous.
Ratajkowski has explained that the exploration into the world of acting has been both liberating and frustrating. The actress has explained in interviews that, with modeling, she’s not allowed to do much to change her image, as her image is exactly what marketing campaigns are buying. If they think they’re buying a buxom brunette but she decides to dye her hair blond, she could miss out on a job opportunity.
On the other hand, Ratajkowski has become such a success in the world of modeling, she has explained that many directors wish her to play similar characters to what she’s played before, resorting to being a love interest or merely the sexual interest of one of the film’s characters.
