Legendary Actress, 66, ‘Looks Amazing' at Paris Show
Angela Bassett's presence at Paris Fashion Week was as fierce as her legacy, marked by a commanding aura that was impossible to ignore.
The iconic movie star lit up the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées as she joined fellow celebrities and fashion key players for the Stéphane Rolland Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2025-2026 show.
On Tuesday morning, the award-winning actress stepped onto the arrival runway alongside her husband, Courtney B. Vance and their 19-year-old fraternal twins, Slater and Bronwyn, as the family smiled together for a photo op.
Ahead of the runway show, the 66-year-old star was spotted sitting next to Cardi B in the front row.
While the rapper took the risk and wore a dramatic black and white avant-garde look for the show, the What's Love Got to Do With It star kept it simple and classic.
Bassett stunned in a dark brown flowing dress with an asymmetrical cut detail that added a modern twist to timeless glamour.
In an Instagram post shared by WWD, although the camera was focused on the "Bodak Yellow" songstress, it was the Black Panther 2 star who truly stole the spotlight.
In the comments section, most fans mentioned her and praised how stunning and ageless she looked, even in her late 60s.
"Angela Bassett looks amazing," a follower said.
"Mrs. Bassett serving effortlessly!" a second user noted.
"Angela stole the show!" a commenter added.
Another user echoed the same and left a remark saying, "Angela Bassett looks amazing, she stole the show."
In addition, many couldn't help but draw comparisons between the 32-year-old rapper and the actress.
"CARDI, give it a rest. This is not working. Angela is ALWAYS iconic," a fan wrote.
"Cardi tries too is effortless," another user remarked.
Some even requested more coverage of the two-time Golden Globe winner.
"Love Cardi, but can we get some footage of THEEE Angela Bassett?" a fan said.
Bassett didn't just show up - she owned the moment and redefined what it means to command a room with her timeless elegance, quiet confidence and undeniable presence.
