Charlize Theron Awakens Her Inner Dancer With the Spring 2026 Jazz Shoe Trend

Charlize Theron wore Spring 2026's jazz shoe trend on her press tour in NYC.

In an interview with The New York Times last week, Charlize Theron refuted Timothée Chalamet's claim that ballet is a struggling art form. By April 22, she turned her pro-dance words into action by twirling through her Apex press tour in Spring 2026's jazz shoes trend.

Theron originally moved to New York City to be a ballet dancer, so it's only right she channeled that side on The TODAY Show. Her longtime stylist, Leslie Framer, traded the morning's mesh Alaïa pumps for stark white, fresh-from-jazz-class derby shoes. The Bottega Veneta Fall 2026 pair added monochrome shoelaces to the elongated, square-toe uppers of high-vamp flats. That way, the soft, sole-cradling flats could've gone straight from her TV interview to a dance rehearsal (if she had one).
