PHOTOS: Charlize Theron’s Short And Shoulder-Baring Style

Award-winning roles in “Monster,” “North Country” and “Young Adult” have brought Charlize Theron to red carpets around the world. And to the top of best-dressed celebrities list. The South African-born model-turned-actress’ youthful beauty has also landed her a gig as the face of J’adore Dior fragrance (for which she recently appeared alongside Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich and Grace Kelly in a video for the brand). And while her daytime look is often very casual (jeans, tees and low ponytails), the new mother of an adopted son favors a more glam evening look — evolving from a classic Hollywood style to a more fashion-forward aesthetic.

To promote her latest film “Snow White and The Huntsman,” opening in theaters nationwide on June 1st, Theron has been out and about alongside her co-stars Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth, so we’re taking a look back at some of the 36-year-old actress’ most memorable outfits. Which look is your favorite?
