Stop Everything Margot Robbie Has a New Look in Play

Margot Robbie is one of the producers of the stage play “1536,” and this new role comes with a change in her style. For most of this year, she has often appeared in feminine looks, from her Wuthering Heights press tours to the Met Gala. But for the West End opening night of 1536, she arrived in a military-inspired outfit.

Her outfit was from Alexander McQueen’s spring/summer 2026 collection. The black military-style jacket featured full sleeves and a cropped length. It had defined gold rope stitching running from the shoulders down to the chest, a high-neck collar and floral-inspired embroidery on the sleeves.

Similar jacket was seen in Alexander McQueen’s Spring/Summer 2003 collection, and the style has returned to recent runways. Celebrities including Jenna Ortega have also worn comparable designs, highlighting its comeback.

Margot Robbie did not follow the original runway styling, where the jacket was worn without a top underneath. She chose to layer it over a cropped black tee, paired with low-rise black trousers, pointed-toe heels, and a small black clutch.

The actress was announced as the producer of the play in January, and in a statement, she said “At LuckyChap, we’re always drawn to bold, female-driven stories, and Ava’s brilliant play is exactly that. We’re absolutely thrilled to be coming on board as co-producers for its West End transfer. The show is fearless, witty and emotionally resonant, and it gives voice to women whose stories still feel timely today. Bringing 1536 to the West End is an incredibly exciting next chapter, and we’re honored to help champion this phenomenal piece of art.”

The play is scheduled to run in London through August 1. The story follows three women who meet at a familiar spot as rumours spread about King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, which begin to affect their lives. It explores female friendships and how the women deal with a society that restricts their choices.
