Jolie and Brad Pitt at 2009 Oscars Awards

Angelina Jolie and her sexy fashion choices have always been a hot topic among fashion- goers. The screen goddess of Hollywood who has been often cited as one of the World’s most beautiful women , has also been able to bag the Academy Award, Golden Globe Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Award several times while playing a significant role as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN refugee Agency.

In the recent past, thirty-four-year old Jolie, popularly known as Angie could turn worldwide media attention towards her due to her relationship with actor Brad Pitt with whom she currently lives raising their three biological children Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne and three adopted ones- Maddox, Pax, and Zahara.

Jolie who was among ‘Time’s 100 most influential people in the world’ in 2006 and 2008, was also named the most beautiful woman in the world by ‘People’ in 2006. On the Channel 4 Television show of UK titled ‘The 100 Greatest Sex Symbols’ in 2007, Angelina was voted the greatest sex symbol.

‘Forbes’ ranked Jolie at No: 35 in their ‘Annual Celebrity 100’ list in 2006, and No: 3 in 2008 while ‘Guinness World Records’ (2009 Edition) described her as the most powerful actress.

Jolie who started off as a fashion model was said to have been quite “insecure about her looks and unhappy with her life that she regularly cut herself”. Though she had acted in many films before, it was ‘Lara Croft: Tomb Raider’ that made her an international superstar.

Upto now Jolie had acted in 34 films and has also achieved fame as an international fashion icon appearing constantly on the cover of fashion magazines ‘Vanity Fair’, and ‘Harper’s Bazaar’ several times. ‘The Sydney Morning Herald’ in its article “Everyone wants to look like Jolie” (April 12, 2007) has described Jolie’s lips as the current gold standard of beauty in the West among women seeking cosmetic surgery!

Jolie’s presence always adds glamour to film festivals and movie premiers worldwide. In May 2007 she could mesmerise the audience that attended “Ocean’s Thirteen” premiere during the Cannes Film Festival , wearing a wonderful canary yellow silk gown by Ungaro Haute Couture.

At the recently held Oscar Awards Jolie stood beautiful in her strapless long black dress with Brad Pitt by her side .

“Sometimes maximum sexiness can take minimal effort” reported many a tabloid after seeing Jolie attending ‘’ Kung Fu Panda and Secrets of the Furious Five DVD Hollywood Premiere in a simple Ralph Lauren minidress paired with Stuart Weitzman ‘nude pumps’.

The best part about this look according to these reports were “unlike most celeb styles, it’s super accessible, wearable, and flattering, plus something as basic as a black mini dress carries an endless array of outfit possibilities!”

‘Hr: fashion’ in its website states that ‘“Fashion icon Angelina Jolie is an A-lister in Hollywood that can sport anything she can grab whatever is inside her closet, run her fingers through her hair and can come out looking so fabulously gorgeous.”.

Her “immunity to fashion pitfalls’ has been much talked of.She is also seen as one of the ‘very few women who can afford to fall into the trap of fashion don’ts”, but she knows how to look ‘unbelievably amazing’.

According to some fashion editors the reason is ‘the kind of beauty she has’. ‘It balances out the fashion mishaps she sometimes gets into’.

Jolie’s tattoos too had sparked much media attention just as her fashion choices..

As fashion critics say in the recent past a trend noticeable in Jolie’s style choice is her seeming preference to loose-fitting dresses.

In January 2009 she wore ‘an asymmetrical iced-colored Max Azria gown’ which is slightly drawn in at the waist and a nice bag by Herve Leger (by Max Azria) to attend the Critics’ Choice Awards.

Angie’s choice for Golden Globes was also a loose dress with a slit all the way up the leg. Her navy blue Max Azria gown which she wore for SAG awards in January 2009 was glamorous though it did not show off her curves.
