Julianne Hough has been working hard to maintain her slim figure.

And on Thursday night, she showed off the fruits of her labor as she attended the Television Academy’s celebration of this year’s Emmy Nominees for Outstanding Casting.

The 28-year-old actress gave onlookers a glimpse of her flesh in a sheer black lace dress by Yigal Azrouel. While it looked modest with long sleeves and a midi hemline, the see-through design was far from conservative.

It showed her underwear but cleverly protected her breasts with strategically placed multicolored floral embroideries.

Julianne edged up the ensemble with a couple of rings and earrings. She carried a navy clutch and topped off the look with black pumps.

She styled her blonde locks into a chic updo and sported pink lipstick and heavy mascara for a more feminine vibe.

A pair of dainty heels would have perfected the sexy, feminine look, but Julianne chose the Kurt Geiger “Ellen” pumps. These black suede pumps feature a classic silhouette with pointed toes and about four-inch heels.
