On Theron, styled by Leslie Fremar, it could be a creative nod to her character, the nymph Calypso, who saves a shipwrecked Odysseus on her island only to trap him there for seven years. (Though in the film, the nature of their relationship takes a softer turn). The actor\u2019s outfit was adapted from Ackermann\u2019s Fall-Winter 2026 ready-to-wear collection, which ruminated on the language of desire and seduction, and the magnetism of opposites. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DbjzHPZmpd1\/?hl=en&amp;img_index=1\" target=\"_blank\">series of photos<\/a> Theron posted to Instagram of the outfit, she wrote: \u201cCalypso finally

The mens- and womenswear collection featured pinstripe suiting; high-gloss leather; strappy, hip-baring pants; and multiple takes on the rain-slicker, from long coats to head coverings, to the skirt Theron wore in Seoul.\n    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-elevate inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph_elevate\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cmsgihynq00063b6r4euzix8v@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n            The look fits with Theron\u2019s more daring leanings, especially on this press tour. She\u2019s gone for unexpected pairings and silhouettes, including a blazer with satin short shorts, voluminous detached sleeves, and a chainmail-like armor made breezy through fringe. She\u2019s shied away from more traditional Grecian-inspired gowns. After all, she\u2019s already done them: at the 2017 Academy Awards in metallic gold, and the 2024 Academy Awards in a twisted play on draping, both by Dior. So why not a transparent rainproof skirt, a pair of gloves that mean business, and a pair of pumps? Theron is writing her own mythology.\n    <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EDITOR\u2019S NOTE:\u00a0 Featuring the good, the bad and the ugly, \u2018Look of the Week\u2019 is a regular series dedicated to unpacking the most talked about outfit of the last seven days.
