She's rocketed to stardom for playing plus-size character Kate in This Is Us.

And now Chrissy Metz is making her debut to the fashion world in a glamorous retro-inspired shoot with Harper's Bazaar.

"When I first heard Harper's wanted me to be sexy, I was like, 'Who, me?' I knew y’all were edgy but this is incredible —it’s validation," said the NBC star.

The 36-year-old star wows in the shoot, which evokes an Old Hollywood elegance and embraces Chrissy's natural curves, the Daily Mail reports.

The Florida native is simply showstopping in a vintage-style red swimsuit courtesy of Pin Up Girl Clothing, paired with a wide-brimmed hat.

She amps up the look with a dramatic cat eye, sexy red lip, and sultry gaze at the camera.

In another shot, the Golden Globe nominee dons an empire waist polka-dot frock by Unique Vintage while smiling behind sunglasses and showing off her bombshell locks.

The star compliments her pop of red lipstick with a ribbon belt and matching red manicure.

In her Harper's interview, the American Horror Story: Freak Show actress revealed she's not worried about what other people think about her full figure in Hollywood.

She explained, "[If] I want to wear something [it's] because I love it, not because it follows the rules."

Still, Chrissy says it's difficult for she and other plus-size women to find stylish clothing, saying it's "slim pickings for plus-size women, especially for formal wear."

And the NBC star knows the struggle first hand. At this year's Elton John Oscar Viewing Party, the star wore an off-the-rack ensemble from House Of Cyndarella that she and stylish Jordan Grossman snagged just a day before the event.

Just celebrating Hollywood's biggest night was enough for the rising star though, who said "I was sitting on my couch last Oscars. These are all the kinds of things that, as an actor, you always want to enjoy. This is the little cherry on top."
