Jane Fonda's style evolution in 47 photos: from red carpets to protests

The actress and activist has been known to make a statement through her fashion choices

Jane Fonda is no stranger to a red carpet. Having been in the limelight since the early 1960s, her style has evolved from swinging mini-skirts to flowing sequinned gowns, with plenty of eye-catching jewels along the way.

A regular on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet, the actress, 83, is known for her penchant for a floor-length, fitted gown, in a rainbow of colours, including pink, yellow, red, green and white. Although she has a handful of favourite designers, including Balmain, Versace and Valentino, she has also sported designs by the likes of Badgley Mischka, Marchesa, Elie Saab and Brandon Maxwell in the past.

More recently, Fonda is known for her star turn in sitcom series Grace and Frankie; the mid-noughties comedy, Monster-in-Law, in which she starred alongside Jennifer Lopez; and her earlier work, including Barbarella. She has also been in the news throughout her career for her activism, backing a number of causes, including human rights, environmental and gender rights causes.

Fonda has also made an environmental statement through fashion, vowing to never buy another garment of clothing.

True to her word, for the 2020 Academy Awards, she chose to repeat a rich red beaded gown by Lebanese designer Elie Saab, which she first wore six years earlier on the 2014 Cannes Film Festival red carpet. For the Oscars, she paired the look with a red coat, which she later wore to a climate change protest at the US Capitol.

“You see this coat? I needed something red and I went out and found this coat on sale. This is the last article of clothing that I will ever buy,” she told a crowd during the protest in March 2020. “When I talk to people about, ‘We don’t really need to keep shopping. We shouldn’t look to shopping for our identity. We don’t need more stuff,’ then I have to walk the walk too, so I’m not buying any more clothes.”

Ten tax points to be aware of in 2026

1. Domestic VAT refund amendments: request your refund within five years

If a business does not apply for the refund on time, they lose their credit.

2. E-invoicing in the UAE

Businesses should continue preparing for the implementation of e-invoicing in the UAE, with 2026 a preparation and transition period ahead of phased mandatory adoption. 

3. More tax audits

Tax authorities are increasingly using data already available across multiple filings to identify audit risks. 

4. More beneficial VAT and excise tax penalty regime

Tax disputes are expected to become more frequent and more structured, with clearer administrative objection and appeal processes. The UAE has adopted a new penalty regime for VAT and excise disputes, which now mirrors the penalty regime for corporate tax.

5. Greater emphasis on statutory audit

There is a greater need for the accuracy of financial statements. The International Financial Reporting Standards standards need to be strictly adhered to and, as a result, the quality of the audits will need to increase.

6. Further transfer pricing enforcement

Transfer pricing enforcement, which refers to the practice of establishing prices for internal transactions between related entities, is expected to broaden in scope. The UAE will shortly open the possibility to negotiate advance pricing agreements, or essentially rulings for transfer pricing purposes. 

7. Limited time periods for audits

Recent amendments also introduce a default five-year limitation period for tax audits and assessments, subject to specific statutory exceptions. While the standard audit and assessment period is five years, this may be extended to up to 15 years in cases involving fraud or tax evasion. 

8. Pillar 2 implementation 

Many multinational groups will begin to feel the practical effect of the Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (DMTT), the UAE's implementation of the OECD’s global minimum tax under Pillar 2. While the rules apply for financial years starting on or after January 1, 2025, it is 2026 that marks the transition to an operational phase.

9. Reduced compliance obligations for imported goods and services

Businesses that apply the reverse-charge mechanism for VAT purposes in the UAE may benefit from reduced compliance obligations. 

10. Substance and CbC reporting focus

Tax authorities are expected to continue strengthening the enforcement of economic substance and Country-by-Country (CbC) reporting frameworks. In the UAE, these regimes are increasingly being used as risk-assessment tools, providing tax authorities with a comprehensive view of multinational groups’ global footprints and enabling them to assess whether profits are aligned with real economic activity.
