Former foreign minister and fashion icon Julie Bishop has turned heads in a bedazzling $3,750 Balmain mini dress.
The ex-politician was all smiles as she posed for photos at the David Jones Spring/Summer 22 showcase in Sydney on Wednesday night.
Ms Bishop wore her hair in a sleek side swept bob as she stepped out in a glamorous jacquard long sleeve mini dress from luxury French fashion house Balmain.
The look was teamed with black stockings and matching pumps, while Ms Bishop accessorized with a pair of statement hoops and a designer chain clutch.
Ms Bishop took to Instagram to share the look with her 95,000 followers.
“You stunner,” wrote activewear designer Pip Edwards.
“So chic,” commented another.
“Oh Julie you’ve outdone yourself! Simply spectacular,” added a third.
Over the years Ms Bishop has showcased her impressive designer wardrobe at red carpet events and even during her time in parliament.
She revealed some of her favorite brands include Louis Vuitton, Giorgio Armani, Hugo Boss and Rebecca Vallance.
Ms Bishop stepped away from politics in February 2019 and has pursued different ventures in that time, including a Barbie doll created in her honor and a collaboration with global cosmetics brand Estée Lauder.
She took up the position of Chancellor of the Australian Nation University in 2020.
