Margot Robbie Just Wore This Season’s Most Divisive Trend
Ever since her whirlwind Wuthering Heights press tour wrapped up earlier this year, Margot Robbie has been keeping a bit of a low profile. But after she stepped out for a West End opening night yesterday, consider us officially reminded of what we’ve been missing. As she took her seat at The Ambassadors Theatre to catch the new play, 1536, the actress didn’t simply serve us a look, but rather she resurrected an entire 2000s trend that we had seemingly all forgotten about.
A breakdown of the look
Stepping out in London’s West End last night, Robbie swapped her method dressing gowns for a casual military jacket with swirling gold embroidery.
The piece is a fresh pull from Alexander McQueen’s Spring 2026 collection, styled effortlessly over a sleek, all-black ensemble. While the Napoleon Jacket has been hovering on the fringes of the fashion zeitgeist lately, Margot just gave it the ultimate seal of approval, confirming the look is officially back in command.

The actress paired the statement piece with a black top and matching tailored trousers with gold detailing to match the jacket’s intricate embroidery. She also clutched a black leather purse and wore minimalist gold jewellery. For the hair, Margot pulled her recently debuted bob into a chic half-up-half-down do.
