7 style lessons from Angelina Jolie from the 90s that are relevant again
Angelina Jolie
Today, June 4th, is Angelina Jolie’s birthday. The Hollywood actress and mother of six turns 45. Popularity came to her back in the 90s, along with roles in the films "Gia", "Hackers" and "Girl, Interrupted" – Angelina became a frequent guest at various ceremonies and social events. Today we offer to recall her images of the 90s and early 2000s and take note of the couple, because her minimalist style has stood the test of time, and many of those things are back in trend.
1.Bikini
Since summer is in the yard, we offer to start with beach fashion. Scientists and politicians are still making cautious predictions about the complete lifting of restrictions imposed due to the coronavirus, but most still continue to dream of a full-fledged vacation.
If the situation with a trip to the sea is still unclear, then nothing will definitely interfere with sunbathing in a country house or balcony (except for rain, of course), which means that a swimsuit will still be an actual acquisition.

Beach fashion trends are now set by Bella Hadid, Kendall and Kylie Jenner – their selfies from the beach are closely watched by fashionistas from Instagram to get themselves the same high-cut bikinis.
But Bella and her girlfriends only repeat what has already happened, because Jolie posed for a photo shoot in a similar model back in 1991 at the age of 16.

Bikini is, of course, a positive scenario for the development of events, if the summer really turns out to be hot, as weather forecasters promised earlier. Girls still have reason to be skeptical about these forecasts. On days of gloomy skies and temperatures below the climatic norm, there is also fashion advice from Angelina.
Leather items were at one time part of her signature look. She even complemented her evening dress not with a fur cape, but with a leather jacket, to say nothing of everyday looks with tight trousers or raincoats.

Neo and Trinity, you say? Angelina has done this before – back in 1997, at the premiere of Playing God, she appeared in a long, double-breasted leather coat with wide lapels.

3.White-white
Now Jolie often gets into the street chronicles in black outfits, but in the 90s she was a real master of the white total look. Looking at her pictures, you can see how expressive and versatile this color is: it is suitable for both evening and everyday looks, while adding elegance and elegance in any case.
Angelina’s shoes are also worth paying attention to – square-toed shoes and boots are again at their peak, however, trendy wicker sandals are also perfect for a white suit.
4.Bandana
This accessory has slowly made its way to the fashion Olympus in the last few seasons. But the collections shown at the beginning of this year were the final proof of the new reign of this trend from the 90s and early 2000s.
It is not at all necessary to wait for autumn, especially since the coronavirus has shown us that it is generally unreasonable to put off something until tomorrow. Tomorrow may surprise us all.
Therefore, we are extracting our teenage bandana from the depths of the closet right now and trying different styling options. After all, you can use it as a top (if the size allows), and as a belt, and as a bracelet. But if you still want an authentic look, as in those days, then we simply casually tie it on your head, like Angelina.
5.Slip dress
Classics of the 90s wardrobe, slip dresses were worn by all the main style icons of those years: from supermodels like Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss to iconic actresses of the era like Winona Ryder, Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Angelina also often opted for this feminine style when entering the red carpet, adding either a gothic mood due to flaps in the hem, or Hollywood glamor due to sequins.
6.Tie-dye
We have lost our festival fashion this year – all the major musical events of the summer have been cancelled. But if you want to arrange Coachella in a mini format and at home, then the main attributes of the festival look will help to recreate the atmosphere – boho-style items and, of course, tie-dye prints.
Bright blurry blots in the colors of sunset on tropical islands remain among the current trends of the season. And, as Angelina’s example shows, this is a decor option not only for T-shirts, but also for summer dresses.
A significant bonus is that you can make a fashionable outfit with your own hands by ordering a dye online and highlighting a boring outfit for a creative experiment.
7 Trouser suits oversize
Today, pantsuits are a serious competitor to evening dresses when it comes to stellar red carpet wardrobe. What can we say about everyday looks – such popular models as Bella and Gigi Hadid often prefer oversized suits.

It is convenient and versatile – depending on other complementary things and accessories, it is easy to create both a daytime and an evening look, but those who are worried about a couple of kilograms gained in quarantine will be able to keep them secret thanks to this outfit (although worry about We don’t recommend this kind of nonsense.
Angelina knew about the attractiveness of such an outfit as a teenager – you can repeat her image almost verbatim. In 2020, pearl necklaces and lavender shades are back in fashion.
