A very svelte Oprah Winfrey is hitting the shows at Paris Fashion Week, and she isn’t afraid to take a few fashion risks!
The legendary talk show host, 72, first made waves at the annual fashion fest at the Chloe runway show, where she was spotted wearing high-waisted jeans and a chic brown jacket. But we’re partial to Winfrey’s look outside the Zimmermann show during day eight of Paris Fashion Week. Sporting a head-to-toe brown leather look complete with pleats, pockets, a popped collar, and a cool elastic waistband, Winfrey looked more chic than ever. She capped off the look with a high ponytail, sunglasses, and a checkered clutch bag. High fashion Oprah is definitely our favorite!

What Has Oprah Said About Using Weight Loss Medication?
Winfrey’s slimmed-down physique comes after decades of struggling with her weight. When she finally found weight loss medications like Ozempic to deal with her issues, the TV icon found a way to “release her shame” about it.
“I realized I’d been blaming myself all these years for being overweight, and I have a predisposition that no amount of willpower is going to control,” she told PEOPLE in December 2023. “Obesity is a disease. It’s not about willpower — it’s about the brain.”
Earlier this year, Winfrey spoke on her podcast about the realizations that she had about how her brain operated differently from someone who doesn’t struggle with weight issues.
“One of the things that I realized the very first time I took a GLP-1 was that all these years I thought that thin people, those people just had more willpower,” she said on the Jan. 14 episode of The Oprah Podcast. “They ate better foods. They were able to stick to it longer. They never had a potato chip. And then I realized the very first time I took the GLP-1 that, ‘Oh, they’re not even thinking about it. They’re only eating when they’re hungry and they’re stopping when they’re full.’”
What’s Oprah’s Workout Routine?
In addition to weight-loss medication, Winfrey has added a rigorous workout regimen to her routine. In her ABC special “Shame, Blame and the Weight Loss Revolution,” Winfrey shared that she is “hiking three to five miles a day.” She also does strength training and has taken up running. For her 70th birthday, Winfrey shared a video of herself jogging on the beach. She used a hashtag that read “health is the best gift.”
