Charlize Theron received the Spotlight Award, which honors an actor whose talent and career personify an enduring commitment to excellence, including a special awareness of the role and importance of Costume Design. The 44-year-old Bombshell actress hit the red carpet in a floor-length glittering Louis Vuitton gold gown. It featured a gorgeous keyhole and black details on the sleeves. Charlize complemented the look with a matching headpiece and a black boxy clutch. The organizers of the award pointed out that the actress was in the spotlight this year: she became the woman of the year according to Glamor magazine and helped people who were faced sexual harassment.
