Charlize Theron took her two daughters, Jackson, 14, and August, 12, as her dates to the 2026 Academy Museum Gala at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles on October 17th, with all three rocking coordinating black ensembles for the occasion.
We understand why the Oscar-winning actress wanted to make it a family affair, as she was being honored with the prestigious Icon Award, which recognizes artists whose careers have had a significant global impact. The award was presented to her by fellow actress Sigourney Weaver.

Charlize Theron Stuns In Sheer Tom Ford Gown
The 51-year-old The Odyssey actress looked incredible in a bespoke sheer black Tom Ford gown designed under the creative direction of Haider Ackermann, featuring intricate lace, black beading, and gray and black crystal embellishments. The Art Deco-inspired design featured a bodice with a daring sheer vertical panel, geometric detailing, and a sheer floor-length skirt. Just wow!
Her blonde bob was styled in a fierce, slicked-back look with edgy, side-swept microbangs, courtesy of hairstylist Adir Abergel. She chose to forgo necklaces and bracelets to let the dress command all the attention, opting instead for Boucheron arrow earrings, a Fuzzy the Leopard Cat emerald ring, and several rings from the Quatre collection. She completed the look with black Tom Ford sandals and complementary dark nail polish.
