You wouldn't get away with it in the Rovers! Tina O'Brien wears a see-through sheer mini-dress for a night on the town
But while patrons at trendy Neighbourhood Bar in Manchester instantly recognised the 30-year-old actress thanks to her former role as Sarah-Louise Platt in the ITV soap, it was her racy dress that really caught the eye.
Indeed, Tina opted to step out in a black sheer mini-dress that showed off her slender legs as she made her way into the Spinningfields based bar and restaurant on a pair of peep-toe Christian Louboutin heels.

The Rusholme born actress ensured her outfit grabbed the lion’s share of attention from onlookers by paring back the accessories, while her make-up was reduced to soft subtle tones.
Tina appeared to be in high-spirits as she trotted through the trendy industrial area with a black coat casually slung over one arm.
A distinctive studded clutch appeared to complete a look that was inevitably dominated by her see-through dress, a distinct variation on the classic little black dress.
