Margot Robbie, who plays Jane in the 2016 adventure film The Legend of Tarzan, looked absolutely gorgeous on the red carpet before the London premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square on July 5, 2016.

Born on July 2, 1990, in Dalby, a rural town and locality in the Western Downs Region, Queensland, Australia, she celebrated her 26th birthday just days earlier.

The Babylon beauty opted to bare a bit more skin than she did for the Hollywood premiere.

Alexander Skarsgård was 39, Margot Robbie was 25, Samuel L. Jackson was 67, and Christoph Waltz was 59 years old when “The Legend of Tarzan” premiered at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on June 29, 2016.

One of the primary motivations for Alexander Skarsgård in accepting this role was to make an impression on his father, Stellan Skarsgård.

“My dad is a massive Tarzan fan,” he told The Fan Carpet. “Growing up, we had these VHS cassettes of the Johnny Weissmuller films, and that was my introduction to the character. But those films are seventy years old, and so much time has passed, that I think mine is a fresh take. I’ll never compete with Johnny Weissmuller, but I just wanted to impress my father. He was thrilled. He was more excited than I was.”

“Margot, I had just seen in Wolf of Wall Street and I was just blown away, I had met Margot for the first time I think at a press junket for Wolf of Wall Street and had been back packing through Europe and I just loved that combination of earthy tomboy and so real and glamorous and bright and insightful and so to have all those qualities seemed perfectly natural,” The Legend of Tarzan director David Yates said about casting Margot Robbie after seeing her performance in Wolf of Wall Street.

The gold and black backless Miu Miu gown with embroideries and sheer detailing was incredibly sexy.

Her dress flashed some cleavage from a slit down the chest, gave a peek at her legs through a thigh-high split, and showed off some side boob beneath the dress’s sheer fabric.

As if the dress wasn’t captivating enough, Margot arrested our attention further with some Messika jewels and sultry dark eye makeup.

She tossed her hair up in a low messy bun with side fringe and added a few inches to her height with a pair of metallic Bally sandals.

These silver sandals were simple yet elegant, as they barely stood out beneath the long hem of Margot’s dress. The shoes’ thin toe strap and thin ankle strap added so much to her ensemble without drawing too much attention.
