As Rosie Webster in Coronation Street, actress Helen Flanagan has been wearing increasingly sexy outfits in recent months thanks to her character taking the modelling world by storm.

But it seems Helen has got fed up of waiting for a show-stopping costume on the show, instead taking it upon herself to set photographers' flashbulbs going with an incredibly risqué outfit.

The 20-year-old actress decided to wear a plunging black dress, complete with thigh-high slashes on both legs, as she spent the night at London's Playboy club over the weekend, before moving on to nightclub Alto's closing party.

Revealing: The plunging dress featured an incredibly low neckline and two slashes on both legs

Helen seemed entirely unconcerned about the fact that she had an incredible amount of flesh on display as she delicately climbed out of her taxi and headed in to the party.

The Coronation Street star teamed the daring outfit with a pair of sky-high gold heels and a bright pink bag.

Helen also appeared to have taken some inspiration from Liza Minnelli on how to style her dark brown crop, opting for a gold 20s-style headband to sit atop her head.

The actress also went for Minnelli-inspired make-up with lashings of mascara and bright red lips.
Helen tweeted her delight after the evening out, telling her followers: 'I was in London this weekend with my best friend @GemmawemsMorris on my 21st night out. We had such an amazing night!'
But the pretty brunette later scorned the men who had refused to help her with her suitcase as she headed back up to Manchester after the weekend in London.

She wrote on her Twitter page: 'Just on the train home with no hangover which is good. But I had so much luggage with me and I was so shocked to find that in the train station I must have seen loads of men seeing a girl really struggle with her bags and no guy offered to help.

'It's just something I really appreciate there is nothing nicer then a gentleman. So guys if u ever see a girl nearly breaking her back with heavy luggage- help her out she will b buzzing!'

Helen has also been keeping her fans updated with her return to the Coronation Street set today following a three-month break from the soap.

The star has been kept busy filming an internet spin-off about Rosie's bid to become a model in London, but today made her much-anticipated return to the Manchester set to film scenes to be broadcast later in the year.

She tweeted: 'My first day back at work! The fun has only JUST begun.'

She also posted pictures of a welcome back sign posted on her dressing room door, and a bottle of champagne given to her by castmates.

Helen has been in London in recent weeks filming her three-part spin-off show, Just Rosie, alongside co-star Ryan Thomas, who plays her boyfriend Jason Grimshaw.

The special episodes, which will air on ITV.com in September, will show Rosie attempting to make it as a model after she lands a job on Lorraine Kelly's morning TV show.

But she ends up in a catfight with a rival which turns her into an internet sensation, she then appears as a guest on on Loose Women before being interviewed by Johnny Vaughan and Lisa Snowdon on Capital Radio.

Announcing the spin-off earlier this month, a Coronation Street spokesman said: 'This is a great opportunity for fans of Coronation Street to watch extra exclusive content on ITV.com that links back into the main show on ITV1.'
