We know it's not fair to put people in boxes—especially when fashion is concerned—but some stars just have a more demure look than others—or so we thought. These A-listers proved us wrong by strutting some very different stuff on the red carpet—and by very different we mean very sexy.

Jessica Chastain's wild, red head side finally came out to play in this LBD. The plunging, illusion front is more skin than the Zero Dark Thirty star typically shows, and it has an awesome, Kiss of the Spiderwoman feel. Our favorite touch, though, are her free flowing locks. They say "bed head" with a touch of class.

What more can we say than DAME, girl! Helen Mirren always looks gorgeous, but she rarely looks like the world's classiest vixen. The Red 2 star stepped out in this Jenny Packham stunner to school us on how to be sexy at any age. Lesson learned.

We're not used to seeing Zooey Deschanel without a '50s-style sundress and thick, black tights, but she wowed at the Golden Globes in this low-cut red gown. The New Girl looked like a brand new woman—no quirky glasses, no thick ringlets, and no matching cardigan. If only she'd left Grandma's pearls at home...

And finally—our favorite shocker to date—Breaking Bad's Anna Gunn. The whip smart wife of Walter White has never looked hotter, just in time for the final eight episodes of the season. We're used to seeing Skylar White in Mom jeans and accoutant attire, but she's here to let us know that she's not a real housewife of Albuquerque, she just plays on on TV.
