Charlize Theron Wore Tom Ford To ‘The Odyssey’ Seoul Press Conference

As we saw from her three looks in Beijing, Charlize Theron is a completely different woman, style-wise, in Asia as she continues promoting The Odyssey.

For the Seoul press conference at the Four Seasons Hotel this afternoon, the actress wore a Tom Ford Fall 2026 look that felt even more directional than the Givenchy and Louis Vuitton dresses she wore last week.

That was largely down to the PVC wrap skirt, layered over a striped shirt, lace shorts and polka-dot tights. It is an unusual mix of office shirting, lingerie-inspired details and glossy outerwear, creating a look that sits somewhere between corporate dressing and fashion experimentation.

I know this will be an immediate no from some, but I’m actually on board with it.

The attitude sells the look. Charlize wears it with enough conviction that, unconventional as it is, she makes it believable. The only element stopping me from fully embracing it is the leather gloves.

The skirt is the statement piece. The gloves are one styling detail too many.

What has been most interesting about this second leg of The Odyssey press tour is seeing Charlize take more risks. Her wardrobe has become noticeably bolder and more provocative -not in the sense of revealing more skin, but in its willingness to challenge expectations. Instead of relying on the clean, minimalist tailoring that has defined so much of her red-carpet style, she’s embracing pieces that are more fashion-led and less predictable.

I’m enjoying seeing this version of Charlize step outside her comfort zone.

Even when every look doesn’t completely win me over, I’d much rather see this kind of experimentation than another impeccably tailored pair of shorts.
