When you’re Charlize Theron, sometimes two wrongs really do make a right.
The Oscar-winning actress, 50, attended Christian Dior’s Spring/Summer 2026 runway show at Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday, wearing what would, on most mortals, be a deeply confusing look.
Under a pair of baggy green shorts (likely from the brand’s most recent men’s collection), Theron wore sheer black tights, their opaque top peeking out above the shorts’ waistband.
On top, she styled a black leather biker jacket with embroidered birds and flowers over her bare torso — skipping the shirt entirely.
Accessorizing the divisive look were a pair of black loafers with white uppers, dark sunglasses, and a plush red leather clutch. She wore her blonde, highlighted hair past her shoulders, a changeup from her recent chin-length bob.
The star rarely shies away from making a bold statement. Earlier this summer, she opted for a fishnet catsuit for “The Old Guard 2” premiere red carpet.
Later that same week, she slammed Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos for their extravagant $50 million wedding, thanking guests at the fifth annual Block Party for the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project for “taking the time to be a part of this, especially when the world feels like it’s burning because it is.”

Her Dior appearance marks her first fashion week turn of the season — though her attendance is no surprise, given her longstanding relationship with the house.
Theron has been a brand ambassador since 2004, when she signed on to front the campaign for J’adore fragrance.
Just this year, she posed for Dior’s Haute Joaillerie ads, dripping in diamonds and sapphires.
Wednesday’s show at the Jardin des Tuileries marks creative director Jonathan Anderson’s first womenswear collection for Dior, and one of the buzziest debuts of the season.
The Irish designer — who stepped down from the helm of Loewe earlier this year — is the first designer since the label’s founder to design both men’s and women’s wear for the house.
