Charlize Theron Embraces Sheer Dressing With Fishnet Edge in Givenchy for ‘The Old Guard 2’ Los Angeles Premiere

Charlize Theron joined the cast and creative team behind “The Old Guard 2” for the film’s premiere on Wednesday in Los Angeles. The Oscar-winning actress stars in the sequel to the 2020 action and fantasy Netflix feature.

For the film’s red-carpet premiere, Theron drew inspiration from the runway for her style. The actress wore a black fishnet bodysuit courtesy of Givenchy. The look, which opened the fall 2025 ready-to-wear collection runway show, featured a high neckline and see-through black fishnet fabric with “Givenchy, Paris 1952” embossed in white on the bustline of the look.

Beneath the black fishnet bodysuit, the Oscar-winning “Monster” actress wore a black peekabo bra layering top and a pair of high-waisted black “HotPants,” a term coined by WWD in the 1970s to describe super short shorts of various fabrics.

Theron coordinated the look with a pair of black square-toed boots. She also styled a black blazer with sharp lapels overtop her bodysuit. As for her glam, Theron’s blond hair was pulled back into a tight chignon. Her makeup included smoky eyes, defined brows and a glossy lip.

Theron’s “The Old Guard 2” premiere look made its runway debut during Paris Fashion Week last March. The collection marked Sarah Burton‘s first as the creative director of the French luxury fashion house. The designer previously led the formative years of her career with Alexander McQueen.

Burton took inspiration from Givenchy’s debut collection in 1952, turning to the archives and crafting a collection that went “back to silhouette. This is the backbone of the house today,” she said per Miles Socha’s WWD review of the collection.

“The clothes were superb, peerlessly realized and immediately desirable; sometimes young and zesty, but most often the pinnacle of adult sophistication,” Socha wrote in WWD’s review. “Here was a show where you could sense how proud the models were to wear them, and the entire cast of diverse sizes and ages looked gorgeous.”
