JULIA Stiles impressed her fans after the 90s star went makeup-free for a recent red carpet appearance. Julia, now 43, is best known for her turn as angsty teenage Kat Stratford opposite Heath Ledger's Patrick Verona in 10 Things I Hate About You, which was released 25 years ago. The actress and filmmaker is awaiting the release of her directorial debut Wish You Were Here, a romantic drama starring Isabelle Fuhrman and Mena Massoud in the lead roles.

Julia, who shares three children with husband Preston Cook, recently stepped out for the New York premiere of COUP!, a new thriller-comedy starring Peter Sarsgaard, Billy Magnussen, and Sarah Gadon. She paired a mauve crew neck T-shirt with a colorful midi skirt for the event, completing her look with a pair of bright blue pointed heels. The Bourne Identity star was all smiles as she struck a pose on the red carpet, with fans gushing over her youthful appearance in comments on a pop culture Reddit forum.
