Lady Helen Mirren looked stunning in an unearthed photoshoot with a punk twist from 1998.

In the photo taken by famed photographer Rankin, the 78-year-old, who was biting her thumb, wore a bright orange jacket.

The Oscar-winning actress paired her colorful attire with spiky, cropped hair with a copper shade.

Dame Helen's image featured on the cover of Dazed And Confused magazine in the 1990s and is on display in a new exhibition.

The exhibition features the publication's famous covers between 1991 and 2001, providing a time capsule of British creativity in the 1990s.

Dame Helen is used to stealing the show with glamorous looks – and recently walked the catwalk at the L'Oréal Walk Your Worth launch show in Paris.

The show, which took place under the Eiffel Tower as part of Paris Fashion Week, aimed to “inspire all women to appear unapologetically in the world and face their destiny with confidence,” according to the beauty brand.

The Queen actress joined the likes of Elle Fanning and Kendall Jenner – and looked like an absolute goddess as she strutted her stuff on the catwalk.

Last year she also won the Cannes Film Festival when she fluffed up with bright blue hairand made a stunning arrival on the red carpet.
