Charlize Theron is one of Hollywood's most stylish stars, and she proved it once again at the premiere of Netflix action thriller 'Apex' in New York City on April 22.
As the longtime face of Dior's J'adore fragrance, the Oscar-winning actress went full Dior for the evening. She wore a single-breasted black wool blazer with matching high-waisted trousers and a striking white pleated Elizabethan-style collar. The blazer was left open with no shirt underneath—a daring yet refined choice.
The contrast between the masculine look of the blazer against the ruffled collar and bare skin gave Theron an androgynous, balanced style.
Indeed, there's nothing more visually intriguing than pairing a traditionally masculine and stiff jacket with the soft and curvy female body. That's why blazers with nothing underneath have become something of a fixture on the red carpet. Its ability to defy rules is sexy, while the jacket gives the look a refined feel.
