Olivia Munn, a connoisseur of high fashion, graced the red carpet at the prestigious 2025 TIME Women of the Year Gala in West Hollywood, California, on Tuesday, February 25th. The 44-year-old actress and activist radiantly embodied elegance in an all-white ensemble.
For the glamorous event, Munn, renowned for her role in "Your Friends and Neighbors," donned a mesmerizing Gaurav Gupta SS24 Couture gown that beautifully merged ethereal charm with futuristic allure. The strapless, floor-sweeping dress was adorned with intricate, structured swirls, creating a captivating texture throughout. Her sole accessories for the evening were statement-making white earrings, featuring layered hoops that complemented her enchanting attire.
Munn opted for a timeless hairstyle, pulling her dark tresses into a sleek, low ponytail. Her makeup was meticulously crafted to enhance her natural beauty, with a deep pink lipstick, rosy cheeks, and a hint of smoky eyes that imparted a subtle yet seductive vibe.
Honored as a TIME Women of the Year, Munn was celebrated for her tireless efforts in raising awareness about breast cancer following her own diagnosis in 2023. In an interview, she revealed that despite receiving clean mammogram results just months prior, she had undergone testing and subsequently undergone a double mastectomy to halt the cancer's spread. To further combat the disease, the mother of two also had her uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries removed to prevent the production of hormones that could feed her illness.
Munn shares her 3-year-old son, Malcolm Hiệp Mulaney, and 5-month-old daughter, Méi June, with her husband, John Mulaney. Reflecting on her journey, she shared, "I look at videos of me laughing with my son, running around in the park, feeling and looking healthy — all the while having this really aggressive, fast-moving cancer spreading through my breasts. I thought, 'Man, there’s so many women out there just like me.' They might have no idea. And it may be too late by the time they find out."
When Munn announced her honor via Instagram, Mulaney, 42, was her unwavering supporter, commenting, "Proud doesn’t even begin to describe it." The couple recently enjoyed a special date night at the SNL50: The Anniversary Special on February 16th, where Munn stunned in an all-black vintage 2003 Yves Saint Laurent halter dress with a relaxed fit. Her hair flowed in loose curls, and she accessorized with large diamond stud earrings and a single ring on each hand. Playfully captioning her Instagram carousel, which featured behind-the-scenes content and photos of her stunning look, Munn joked, "I almost choked when my stylist called this 2003 Yves Saint Laurent dress vintage. "
Munn stars in Apple TV+'s upcoming series "Your Friends and Neighbors," set to debut on April 11th. The show features Jon Hamm as a recently divorced and unemployed hedge fund manager, promising a captivating narrative that will resonate with audiences.
