Look how far Dakota Johnson has come!

Just 10 years ago, the famous daughter of Melanie Griffith was a young teen on her best behavior at the Oscars. Fast-forward to today and she's making bold moves on the red carpet.  

In her first major red carpet since Fifty Shades of Grey was released in the states, the 25-year-old stunned in a Saint Laurent red dress with Forevermark Diamonds.

And while Johnson could have brought many admirers as her date, she chose her longtime "love" to tag along before she presented an award. 

"My mom is here with me as my date," she told Ryan Seacrest on Live From the Red Carpet. Nice choice, lady!

Rocking a ponytail and carrying the perfect clutch, Johnson admitted that her mother has yet to see Fifty Shades of Grey.

But perhaps she has seen a scandalous prop her daughter took home after filming the sexy film.

"I kept a flogger," she admitted to Seacrest before he asked, "Can we say that on live TV?"

And before you google what it is, we will give you a hint. It involves some serious whipping. Consider yourself warned!
