Charlize Theron obtained drafted into Odyssey obligation this week, this time for the Chinese language premieres. And she or he gave them her all, however for me it’s the opposite styling that allow her down. This gold robe is by Louis Vuitton, and sure, it’s much less of a costume than a ornament. It seems like one thing you’d dangle within the doorway of your dorm room in order that your pal could make a grand entrance on her birthday, to a Spice Ladies track, earlier than going straight to the station the place somebody mixes a margarita shot in her open mouth. (I’ve NOT executed this however I did witness it as soon as, and it was a strawberry marg, and the woman ended up sputtering and it spilled down the entrance of her white costume.) And but with all that, I believe Charlize is carrying the threads very properly, however I believe her face type of fades into the background. Which must be very, very exhausting to do.
That is Givenchy:
This costume is extraordinarily cool, and I might pay cash to see what it does when she sits in it, however as soon as once more the make-up — and, I’d argue, additionally the hair — have let her down. The remainder of her is serving a Attractive But Regal vibe. It’s actually too dangerous we will’t get a Ladies of The Odyssey spinoff movie, directed by, say, Gina Prince-Bythewood, making Odysseus a blip of their in any other case full lives. Like, I’m sorry, what do you MEAN Penelope simply sat there WEAVING for 20 years? There’s no approach.
