With her dark hair and striking eyes, Collins projected a sultry, provocative image that led to frequent "bad girl" casting.

Her subsequent films whilst under contract to Rank included Decameron Nights (1953) with Joan Fontaine; England's first X rating drama, Cosh Boy (1953), directed by Lewis Gilbert; Turn the Key Softly (1953), a drama about three women released from prison on the same day; and the boxing saga The Square Ring (1953).

That same year, Collins was cast in the starring role of Evelyn Nesbit in The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing with Ray Milland and Farley Granger. The part had originally been intended for Marilyn Monroe, however problems between Monroe and Fox led to Collins gaining the role.
