Charlize Theron dazzles in white at Paris Olympics prelude event

Class, grace, and minimalism perfectly describe Charlize Theron's style. On a daily basis, the actress opts for jeans and simple T-shirts, but when she appears on the red carpet, she outshines everyone.

This time was no different. The Oscar winner for her role in "Monster" attended the Prelude to the Olympics event. Although she rarely appears at such events, her outfit stole the show. Once again, she proved she is the queen of "raw," monochromatic styles.

Before beginning her acting career, Charlize Theron was a model. The actress is 1.78 metres tall. She worked in Milan and New York. After a year of modelling, she moved to Los Angeles, where she was noticed by a talent agent who gave her his number. She made her big screen debut in 1996.

Although her first film received mixed reviews, Theron gained attention thanks to her ethereal beauty. In subsequent years, she proved she was also a talented actress. In 2003, she won an Oscar for her leading role in "Monster".

Her modelling experience certainly helped her find her style. The actress opts for simple and elegant cuts and colours, which harmonise perfectly with her beauty. She is fond of black, white, navy, and red. Monochromatic total looks are her trademark.

She appeared in an exceptional outfit at the Prelude to the Olympics event in Paris. She chose an asymmetrical white mini-dress, but her attention was grabbed by a train draped over her shoulder.

This seemingly simple dress makes a stunning impression, making it hard to take your eyes off the actress. A clutch and metallic high-heeled sandals complemented the ensemble.

The dress is the main highlight here. The actress avoids heavy makeup or elaborate hairstyles. She usually goes for simple, slightly messy updos and subtly defined eyes. The only bold move in her makeup is usually red lips, but this time, she skipped them.
