Charlize Theron made a stunning appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday in Los Angeles as she kicked off the promotional tour for The Old Guard 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2020 action film The Old Guard, directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood.
For her late-night talk show debut, the Oscar-winning actress showcased a bold fusion of sheer elegance and sharp tailoring. Theron donned a sleek black blazer with structured shoulders and angular lapels, creating a sharp, contemporary silhouette. The tailored blazer was cinched at the waist with a coordinating black silk sash, enhancing its form-fitting shape while maintaining a sophisticated look. A striking pocket detail added a refined touch to the ensemble.
Staying on-trend with a recent fashion movement, Theron opted for a shirtless style beneath her blazer, a look previously popularized by Venus Williams at Milan Fashion Week and Camila Cabello at Paris Fashion Week earlier this year.
To complete her look, Theron paired the blazer with a flowing black sheer maxi skirt. The sheer fabric added movement and grace, while subtle ruching and stitching at the hips added texture and dimension. The fabric’s cascading effect created a soft, ethereal appearance as it gently swayed with each step.
The actress accessorized her ensemble with minimal jewelry and black sunglasses, keeping the focus on her striking outfit. Theron’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! not only highlighted her acting chops but also her continued influence in the fashion world.
In addition to promoting her role in The Old Guard 2, Theron is involved in several notable fashion collaborations. She is the face of Dior’s inaugural high jewelry campaign, marking a significant milestone as the first ambassador for Dior’s most exclusive jewelry collection, designed by the legendary Victoire de Castellane, Artistic Director of Dior Joaillerie.
Reflecting on her work with Dior, Theron shared, “Working with Dior for so many years now, I have to say, it’s our collaboration I have always valued and appreciated. Together, we felt that it was important for this high jewelry story to embody the essence of what it means to be bold and confident. Victoire de Castellane more than exceeded with her extraordinary vision and artistry.”
As the actress continues her promotional efforts for The Old Guard 2, she remains at the forefront of fashion and luxury partnerships, further cementing her status as a multifaceted global icon.
