Teager, ironic, elegant regardless. Whatever you wear, Cate Blanchett always manages to be cool and sophisticated. Even with the fun fuchsia costume with giant bow on the head, to steal the show even from Margot Robbie.
Cate Blanchett becomes “middle-aged” Barbie
At the ceremony of AACTA (Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards) the actress of Diary of a scandal delivers the prize Trailblazers 2024 to Margot Robbie with a look halfway between a high fashion dress and a costume Carnival. In which the 3D dress covered in fuchsia fringes and glitter is completed with a surrealist XXL-sized hair accessory. «Middle age Barbie» says the Australian star (55 years old in May) when she goes on stage, launching her idea of a “mature” Barbie: always beautiful and self-deprecating.
On stage: the extra large hair accessory
Always impeccable and very elegant, the protagonist of the film The fair of illusions she has never hidden her great passions: bows and the color pink. The AACTA evening is the perfect opportunity to combine them and launch yourself into a fun and exaggerated look, perfect inspiration for dressing up for Carnival at all ages. Paying homage to the great catchphrase that has dominated the aesthetics of the last year, namely the film Barbie.

The chic Mexican piñata style look is accompanied by the extra large surrealist hair accessory. A mega polka dot bow that covers almost entirely her very blonde hair, with the ribbons going down the sides of her face. «I’m here tonight» he says smiling «to present the 2024 Trailblazer Award to one of my favorite performers and people: Margot Robbie». If the intent was to steal the show from the 20 years younger actress and director, the mission succeeded splendidly.
On the red carpet: the asymmetric blonde bob
The mature – and witty – Barbie outfit is actually a coup de théâtre temporary. On the red carpet of the Australian ceremony, the star born in 1969 wears one of her favorite looks (already shown off on several occasions). The one-shoulder jumpsuit by Armani Prive with gold border and sleeve in the same shade as her hair.
There bombshell dye it is very light like her skin, in a monotonal version close to platinum on the lengths and with delicately darker regrowth. There side line it is positioned in the outermost part, starting at the level of the external corner of the right eye.
The tuft thus created falls softly towards the left cheekbone, blending in with the rest of the hair with its asymmetrical silhouette. Full-bodied and extra volume on the bare shoulder, thinner and minimalist on the sculpted sleeve part. A wavy bob modern which adds to his rich encyclopedia of super cool medium cuts.
