But how much Angelina Jolie's style has changed
From the dark to the sexy period, from Old Hollywood dresses to lady-like style
There is a lot of talk about Angelina Jolie. About her About her husbands, about her children, about her films and about her humanitarian commitment. But her style also deserves attention: her every outfit is flawless. It's hard to find another star who, like her, has never made a faux pas fashion. Since she achieved success in the 90s to today, her way of dressing has changed in mood, but she has kept unchanged some traits that have become her trademark. She is characterized by a feminine, elegant and sensual style from head to toe.
The 90's style
The 90s were for Angelina Jolie those of her debut in the world of cinema up to the interpretation of the problematic and rebellious Lisa Rowe in the film Girls interrupted in 1999 that will make her win the Oscar for best supporting actress. In those years, her look still shows the dark roots of the style she has loved since adolescence. Her dress worn at the 2000 Academy Awards ceremony is also black, long and tapered. It matches the color of her hair and make-up, in stark contrast to the very pale skin of her face. At that time she often wore slip dresses, alternating black with white and experimenting with sparkling surfaces. Like those of the dress she wore at the 1999 Golden Globes alongside her then husband Johnny Lee Miller.
The 2000s and the sexy turning point
With the beginning of the new millennium, life changes suddenly for Angelina Jolie. These are the years of the worldwide success of her, of her second husband, Billy Bob Thornton and of films that attract the attention of the general public to her. From Out in 60 seconds to Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, from Original Sin to Identità violate. Her style becomes more sensual and provocative, perhaps thanks to her relationship with her husband, passionate, provocative and transgressive. The two get each other dedicated tattoos and wear each other's blood in a small ampoule around their necks. And they give spicy interviews. Her clothes get tighter and she often wears leather pants and micro T-shirts. But the marriage is not destined to last and ends in divorce in 2003.
The meeting with Brad Pitt
In 2005 she made the film Mr E Mrs Smith alongside Brad Pitt. There is a deep alchemy between the two. In the same year Pitt divorces Jennifer Aniston with whom he has been married since 2000. The public accuses Jolie of having been the cause of her. In the following months, the two do not escape the paparazzi and their relationship is there for all to see. Her up to being sealed by the birth of her first natural daughter, Shiloh Nouvel. Brangelina are born, one of the most admired and photographed couples in the world. The adopted children arrive and humanitarian commitments increase. Angelina Jolie's style evolves with her. It gets simpler and more classic during the day. With loose dresses, ballet flats, blazers, t-shirts and tapered jeans.
Old Hollywood red carpet
But the most striking transformation takes place on the red carpet. The evening dresses are classic, timeless, following those of the divas of Old Hollywood. Satin alternates with velvet, favorite surfaces turn to sparkling. Bustiers are fitted and skirts are wide and flowing. Or Angelina focuses on tapered silhouettes that draw her body, enhancing it. She still wears a lot of black and white but doesn't mind a few forays into strong colors like yellow, green and red. Rich in drapery and precious applications. As the years go by, her style becomes even more lady-like. If on the red carpet she still plays at being a diva, during the day she opts more and more often for suits with a retro mood, elegant and sophisticated. Like the pearl gray suit she wore to meet Queen Elizabeth II in 2014.
The secrets of her style
However, each transformation of her has some common traits that make her outfits perfect even today. First of all, focus on items with a simple and minimal line, often in basic shades. From fluid clothes to T-shirts. During the day Angelina Jolie hardly ever wears printed or appliqued dresses. And she opts for measured proportions and classic shapes, beyond the trends of the moment. On the red carpet, if in the 90s she wore satin or sparkling slip dresses, from 2000 onwards she has increasingly focused on a timeless style.
