Mad Men star Christina Hendricks looks unrecognizable in new photo after drastic weight loss
MAD Men star Christina Hendricks has looked nearly unrecognizable in a new photo after her drastic weight loss.
The actress shared a series of snapshots, captioned: "Dinner with friends," to her Instagram account on Tuesday.
The photos captured Christina, 48, looking straight forward and standing in profile while wearing an elegant, evening dress.
The form-fitting dress included a floral-print lace overlay and a low-cut neckline that showed off her curvaceous figure and ample chest.
Christina, whose fiery red hair was pulled back into a loose bun, held a black leather clutch and accessorized with a pair of large, gold chandelier-like earrings.
The Good Girls actress, who is known both for her head-turning figure and her onscreen talent, appeared to be sporting a slimmer frame than what fans have become accustomed to.
