Charlize Theron Dazzles at Paris Fashion Week in Daring Leather Look
Charlize Theron made a bold fashion statement at the Christian Dior jewellery runway show in Paris on Wednesday, turning heads with her choice to wear a sleek black leather jacket with nothing underneath. The Oscar-winning actress and longtime Dior ambassador's daring ensemble sparked widespread praise and social media buzz.
A Minimalist Yet Edgy Ensemble
Theron's look at the star-studded event, held at Jardin des Tuileries, featured a structured, slightly oversized Dior leather biker jacket worn directly against her skin. The jacket, fastened with a single button at the waist, offered a glimpse of her décolletage while maintaining a sophisticated air. The jacket featured diagonal zips and pink rose and white dove embroidered accents. She paired the look with neutral, barely-there makeup and long hair with platinum blonde highlights and natural waves, opting to forgo jewellery.
Unexpected Pairings and Trending Styles
The 50-year-old actress paired the jacket with knee-length pleated green shorts from the men’s collection, sheer black stockings, black and white flat loafers, and a red leather clutch bag. Her choice of loafers aligns with the trending look this season, and her height of 177cm allowed her to stand out even amongst other celebrities in heels. Many considered this one of her boldest looks to date.
The Internet Reacts
Theron's fashion risk garnered widespread praise, with many hailing her as a fashion icon. One Instagram comment declared, "Charlize Theron is the undisputed queen of Paris Fashion Week," while another lauded her beauty as "a symphony of sensuality." This appearance also marked the debut of longer hair, a change from her recent blunt bob.
Theron's History of Boundary-Breaking Looks
This daring look is consistent with Theron's reputation for pushing fashion boundaries. In recent months, she has sported a Givenchy silk bodysuit with high-waisted pants, a black sweater with a silver chain fringe skirt, and a Givenchy fishnet bodysuit with a blazer. She also notably wore a sheer white ruffle dress in July for a photoshoot.
