Cate Blanchett was spotted enjoying a ritzy evening in London on Thursday as she celebrated a major personal achievement on the eve of International Women's Day. 

The New Boy star looked incredible in a mixed vinyl and leather look that no one saw coming. Cate, 54, opted for a black vinyl cropped jacket with a structured and sharp zip-around collar. The garment also featured reverse stitching to highlight the corseted look.

The Tár actress styled the bold piece with a pair of equally bold black leather pants which had a piece of fabric that came down from the waistline that was covered in silver poppers.

Cate looked effortlessly look in the ensemble which she teamed with black pointed-toe stilettos and a pair of oversized rings. Her sandy blonde locks were worn in loose waves for a softer touch and her makeup was kept to a minimum with a touch of mascara and a barely-detectable peachy lip colour.
