Thuso Mbedu made an impression at the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2027 womenswear show, turning up as one of the evening's most talked-about guests in a look that was equal parts relaxed and refined.

The South African actress was among the high-profile names invited to witness creative director Nicolas Ghesquière's latest ready-to-wear collection live on the runway.

For the occasion, Thuso chose a loose-fitting, long-sleeved pink checked minidress that leaned into comfort without sacrificing style. She grounded the look with black boots and a coordinating black handbag, finishing things off with her hair swept into a neat high ponytail.

The ensemble slotted seamlessly into the spirit of Ghesquière's collection, which centred on garments designed to move naturally with the body. His Spring/Summer 2027 pieces carried an easy, practical quality while still holding their fashion-forward edge — and the Children of Blood and Bone actress' choice reflected exactly that balance.

What was actually inside Thuso Mbedu's handbag?

The Woman King star found herself in a lighthearted moment during the event when a reporter asked her to name her favourite item inside her bag. After a brief rummage through the purse, Thuso came up nearly empty-handed.

"It's actually very empty right now; I will have to say it's my invite for tonight. That'll be my invite because it's so empty," she said, pulling out her show invitation as the punchline.

The candid exchange gave fans a peek at the more unguarded side of the actress, who wore the moment with the same ease as her outfit.
