Thompson wore a a gold gown by Oscar de la Renta that was dripping with gold and silver chains to the premiere. The lengthy dress was made up of a corset-like bodice, fitted with dangling chainmail in silver. The structured top gave way to a flowing asymmetrical skirt with a long train trailing behind. The skirt had a side slit that ran up the star’s leg, stopping just above the top of her thigh-high boots.

The hem of the golden skirt was distressed much like the top, giving the outfit a worn, threadbare look. The golden gown was paired with even more gold jewelry, the actress donning arm bands, a choker, and a square clutch. For good measure, Thompson layered chunky gold rings, keeping the sparkle going. The American actress wore her hair in long brown braids parted down the middle, cascading down her back.

The drama was only amplified once Thompson slipped on golden thigh-high boots, complementing the gold sheen in the gown. The pointed-toe boots had a substantial heel, taking the actress to higher heights.
