Sandra Bullock, 62, Nails Leopard Print Trend Revival At Practical Magic 2 Premiere

Sandra Bullock doesn't need magic to turn heads on the red carpet. The Virginia native stepped out at the European premiere of "Practical Magic 2" alongside her returning co-star Nicole Kidman dazzling fans in an outfit that looked straight off the runway.

Bullock, whose side-by-side photos prove she's aging like fine wine, looked absolutely fierce in a gown from Givenchy's fall 2026 collection, as the ankle-length piece featured a bold leopard-print pattern, one of the year's biggest trends. The dress also consisted of a corset-style top and a structural design at one hip, followed by a leg-revealing slit. She styled the ensemble with open-toed, T-strap heels and two gold necklaces, wearing her signature brunette hair in a middle part with subtle, face-framing waves.

The entire look serves as a masterclass on nailing the animal print revival, regardless of age. While some uses of such motifs can lean tacky, the sculptural elements of the gown perfectly balance the daring pattern to create a head-turning red carpet look. Animal prints have been experiencing a major resurgence throughout the 2020s, appearing in several runway collections while being worn by more than one "Practical Magic" star.

Sandra Bullock firmly lands on the list of women over 50 who stunned with 2026 red carpet looks, but she isn't the only older celebrity who's demonstrating how to wear bold prints this year. Fellow "Practical Magic" star Nicole Kidman was photographed in New York City in March 2026 wearing a leopard print coat in gray and black. The Chanel piece was worn over a pair of black trousers and a blazer consisting of gold buttons, with the look being completed by black-and-gold heels featuring a pop of red at the heels. 

The animal print revival isn't limited to on-screen witches, though, as 63-year-old Demi Moore took a different approach to the print when attending the LA screening of "Landman" in April 2026. The Golden Globe winner wore a black turtleneck alongside a black skirt designed with volume at the hips and adorned with a silver leopard print. The combination seamlessly pairs a classic silhouette with a bold print, creating a truly chic look with the addition of slingback heels and a high ponytail.

While these established celebs have taken several different approaches to styling the animal print revival, they each do so with a clear confidence and fashionable touch. Clearly, bold patterns can look chic and polished when worn at any age. For an even bigger witchy fix, check out the "Practical Magic"-inspired nail ideas with an impeccable autumn feel.
