Toni Braxton dons leggy, plunging Rebecca Vallance dress and chats Lupus and her love of performing

Seven-time Grammy winner Toni Braxton looked leggy in a plunging, metallic Rebecca Vallance cocktail dress and Malone Souliers heels for a new spread shot by photographer John Jay Davison.

‘I feel very grateful for life. Music helps me connect with people,’ the 53-year-old R&B belter gushed in the December edition of Harper’s BAZAAR Vietnam.

‘The best feeling is knowing that you have inspired many people. I love to perform, love to compose music. I love singing.’  

Fierce after 50! Seven-time Grammy winner Toni Braxton appeared on the December cover of Harper’s BAZAAR Vietnam in dozens of designer dresses 

Toni also showcased her gorgeous gams in an ornate golden leotard and white tulle cape designed by Tuyet Le, which was selected by stylist Danielle Hawkins.

Braxton struck a pose in a billowy pink creation from Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika with earring by Yves Kamioner.

The Dance singer’s 1930s-style pin curls were coiffed by hairstylist Marie Brown and her usual make-up artist Eva Kim applied her pink eye shadow for the shoot.

Toni discovered she suffered from the autoimmune disease Lupus as well as Microvascular Angina during a health crisis in 2008.    

‘I was petrified. I’m scared! At that time I did not know what lupus is!’ Braxton recalled.

‘I have one of the most serious Lupus syndromes. But from the most serious things, I have the best. I always try to think positively.’

The Maryland-born beauty – whose ‘beauty secret’ is using a frozen vibrator on her puffy eyes – has since unveiled a platinum-blonde pixie cut makeover over the Thanksgiving holiday.

On Wednesday, Toni shared a cute video of herself embracing her son Denim Cole in honor of his 19th birthday.
