Eve Hewson, daughter of the iconic musician Bono, recently turned heads with a dramatic departure from her usual red carpet style at the Los Angeles premiere of Netflix’s “Jay Kelly.” Stepping out for the film—in which she stars alongside actor Sam Worthington—Hewson embraced bold confidence in an ensemble that dared to bare.
The 33-year-old actress traded classic romantic looks for a strikingly modern statement: a shimmering, high-waisted black skirt paired with a one-shoulder sheer jacket. The centerpiece of the outfit? A completely transparent floral lace bralette, allowing her to confidently “free the nipple.”
While Hewson has previously explored edgier fashion choices, this look signifies a new level of assertiveness in her personal style. This marked departure from her more traditionally elegant looks suggests a shift toward self-expression and unapologetic individuality.
Hewson’s evolution in embracing bold fashion choices mirrors a larger transformation she revealed in recent interviews. In a candid conversation with Byrdie magazine earlier this year, Hewson reflected on leaving behind the uncertainty of her twenties and finding liberation in her thirties.
“I feel so good. I feel like I’ve just started living… Already, in my thirties, I don’t want to do things I don’t want to do,” she shared with the publication. Hewson elaborated that she prioritizes personal fulfillment over external pressures: “I care less about what people think of me.”
This newfound confidence is evident not only in her fashion choices but also in her selective approach to red carpet appearances. In a 2022 interview with The Guardian, she confessed to disliking the fanfare surrounding such events. Now, however, Hewson appears to be choosing engagements that align with her evolving priorities and personal aesthetics—making each appearance truly meaningful.
