For the red carpet event, Blanchett chose a coordinated skirt suit featuring contrasting warm and cool tones from Rochas’ resort 2025 collection. The two-time Oscar winner wore a jacket and a high-waisted pencil skirt with red and white stripes.
The jacket featured sharp lapels and subtle translucent buttons, while the coordinated skirt featured fabric draping. To enhance the white and red-striped ensemble, Blanchett introduced a contrasting pop of color. She wore a turquoise button-down shirt with exposed sleeves beneath the jacket, which matched her pointed-toe shoes in a similar hue. The ensemble was curated by stylist Elizabeth Stewart.

For the occasion, Blanchett opted for a look from Stella McCartney’s spring 2025 ready-to-wear collection. The actress wore a black suit with billowing high-waisted trousers and a single-breasted blazer. The look also included a gold dove statement necklace — a reference to the bird motif seen throughout McCartney’s collection, which debuted during Paris Fashion Week last September.
