The 'Burning Plain' actress loves to follow trends but is careful to avoid styles that don't suit her body shape.
She said: "Trends are fun but you've got to know what works on your body. I've got broad shoulders so some things make me look like an American footballer."
Despite worrying about her sizeable shoulders, Charlize revealed her ankles caused her biggest fashion mishap when a pair of elaborately-designed shoes got tangled together on the red carpet.
She explained: "I love heels, they're like sneakers to me. My only mishap was once at Cannes, John Galliano designed these amazing shoes that snaked around my ankle.
"I was on the red carpet in front of hundreds of photographers when one snake head hooked around the other and my ankles got locked together. I had to pose awkwardly until I managed to unhook them."
