Mirren’s natural beauty stole the show as she wore a light pink lip with a rosy blush and black eyeliner. Her hair, cut slightly above her shoulders in a bob cut, was parted to one side.
According to the runway show’s website, this year’s event centered on reimagining a classic French motto.
“Liberté. Egalité. Sororité, a powerful celebration of sisterhood and solidarity. Because believing in yourself isn’t a luxury, it should be a given,” the website says.
Other stars who walked the runway included Kendall Jenner, Eva Longoria, Cindy Bruna, Ariana Greenblatt, Gillian Anderson, Andie Macdowell, and Aja Naomi King.
Mirren has been a global ambassador for L’Oréal Paris for 10 years. She opened up about her experience with the brand while speaking to PEOPLE at the 2024 L’Oréal Paris Women of Worth Honoree celebration last November.
“When [the opportunity] arrived on my doorstep, it was a great surprise because I was 70, actually,” said Mirren.
“And that doesn’t often happen, but it was very much a mark of the change in attitudes, the change in time, the kinds of advances that women had made over the years. So I was surprised,” she continued. “I was very excited and honored and pleased as well.”
The actress also told PEOPLE what her goal as an ambassador has been.
