From strutting in Ralph & Russo, Saint Laurent, or dazzling Versace, Angelina Jolie consistently exudes a sense of sophistication on the red carpet. Since her debut in 1990, the award-winning actress has shown her affinity for glamorous, floor-length gowns. Her choice of a form-fitting Randolph Duke gown to accept her Golden Globe in 1999 made a bold statement – the essence of Old Hollywood glamour is here to stay.
However, in addition to her philanthropic efforts, Jolie also embraced edgier fashion choices such as tattoos, crop tops, and black leather (often paired with diamonds). Remember her sleek leather maxi trench at the premiere of “Playing God” in 1997? The actress had a collection of leather jackets that she frequently wore, whether it was for a quick run to LAX airport or a glamorous red-carpet event. It’s no wonder that the role of Lara Croft in “Tomb Raider” suited Jolie so well, as she had already been rocking black tanks with leather trousers before hitting the big screen in 2001. Throughout the years, Jolie has maintained a consistent style featuring neutral tones, minimalistic silhouettes, and of course, stunning body art.
Prior to the release of Tomb Raider in 2001, the actress was already known for her fashion choices, often opting for black tanks and leather trousers. Recently, she stepped out of her usual subdued style to shine in a custom Versace outfit at the premiere of Eternals in Rome. Sharing her love for fashion with her children, she has allowed them to raid her extensive wardrobe for red carpet events. During the Eternals promotional tour, she let her daughter Zahara wear the stunning Elie Saab couture gown she herself had worn to the Oscars in 2014, while Shiloh borrowed a revamped version of the Gabriela Hearst slip dress Angelina had worn in the summer. Take a trip down memory lane as we look back at Angelina Jolie’s unique blend of gothic style and Hollywood glamour from the 1990s.
