Diane Keaton was last seen out in 2024, nearly a year before her family confirmed her passing in California. The Oscar winner was spotted doing some holiday shopping in Los Angeles, one of her final public outings before stepping away from the spotlight.
That day, Keaton looked radiant and relaxed, dressed in her signature style: a black turtleneck, boxy gray trousers, a dark blazer, and her trademark bowler hat and round glasses. She smiled warmly and waved to fans as she strolled through the shops, exuding the same effortless grace and charm that had defined her for decades.
The rare sighting delighted admirers who had missed seeing the beloved actress in public.
In her later years, Keaton had chosen a quieter, more private life, focusing on her passions, family, and the simple joys that brought her peace.
A Rare Glimpse at the U.S. Open
Before her 2024 Los Angeles sighting, Keatonâs previous public appearance was at the 2023 U.S. Open Tennis Championships in New York City. She was photographed enjoying the final match between Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka while sitting alongside actress Ariana DeBose.
As always, her fashion sense stood out. She wore white trousers, a black-and-white striped blouse, a dark blazer, and her trademark hat. Keaton sipped a drink while chatting and cheering, radiating her usual effortless charm.
The sighting became a fan favorite online, with many admiring how timeless her sense of style remained after decades in Hollywood.
Her Love for Style & Simplicity
Even as she lived a more private life, Diane Keatonâs love for fashion never waned. In a 2021 interview with Interview magazine, she explained why black remained her timeless color of choice.
âI think you almost always have to have a little bit of the color black to frame things,â she said. âIt really sucks you in. Iâm always going to love black because it highlights. It accentuates. Itâs beautiful. Whatever.â
Her signature style included crisp suits, bowler hats, and oversized glasses, which became as iconic as her performances in âAnnie Hallâ and âSomethingâs Gotta Give.â
Effortlessly blending quirk and sophistication, Keaton turned her fashion sense into an extension of her artistry, inspiring generations who admired her authenticity and confidence.
In her later years, Keaton spoke often about what truly brought her peace: nature, friendship, and quiet moments. During her Interview chat, close friend Carol Kane asked what she valued most, and Keatonâs answer reflected her grounded spirit.
âI value a very strong friendship, like ours, which Iâve depended on for such a long time,â she said. âI love to walk with my dog. These are the things I love. And I really do love nature. I love exploring California. I like driving to Arizona. I really enjoy seeing. I guess my favorite thing in life is the fact that I can see. Itâs just so unbelievable.â
Even as she stepped away from the spotlight, Keaton continued to work behind the scenes. At the time of her passing, she had three projects in development: Artist in Residence with Josh Hutcherson, The Making Of with Blake Lively, and Constance, directed by Mark Pellington.
