Charlize Theron offered a risqué behind-the-scenes look at her getting-ready process this week.
On Monday, the 50-year-old Academy Award winner posted a nearly nude photo on Instagram, sharing the topless snapshot as she prepared for The Odyssey‘s premiere in London.
In the picture, Theron is seen sitting on a bed, illuminated by golden-hour sunlight, her arms covering her breasts. Her only accessories: linear rivière earrings by Glenn Spiro, each featuring 10 diamonds.

Theron wore a sultry makeup look with a bold red lip, created by her trusted makeup artist, Kate Lee, who has worked with actresses such as Nicole Kidman, Julianne Moore, and Kate Winslet.
Her manicure, designed by celebrity nail artist Imarni, was nude except for delicate black details.

Theron opted for a black Givenchy gown by Sarah Burton for the occasion, pairing it with billowing white leather gloves and black T-bar sandals from the same brand.
The look was put together by stylist Leslie Fremar, who shared a shot of it on Instagram, simply captioning the post “London🖤” and tagging all the professionals and brands involved in the ensemble.
For the afterparty at the members-only Oswald’s club in Mayfair, Theron switched to a red velvet version of the same gown, this time with black leather Bonbon gloves.
