Whenever I need a dose of refined style inspiration, Angelina Jolie is my go-to muse. Known for cultivating a chic aesthetic, the actor and philanthropist consistently shines in sleek monochrome outfits that embrace comfort whilst exuding sophistication. Her preference for minimalist designs in understated hues allows her to maintain a classic silhouette that never goes out of style.
This week, as she graced the Venice Film Festival, Jolie continued to showcase her signature elegance with a series of stunning floor-length gowns. But what caught my eye were the subtle yet striking autumn color trends that have quietly made their way into her wardrobe rotation. Needless to say, Jolie’s recent sophisticated yet on-trend looks have inspired me to rethink my own autumn wardrobe.
Keep reading to discover the three seasonal shades that Jolie is already embracing.
THE THREE AUTUMN COLOR TRENDS ANGELINA JOLIE IS LOVING RIGHT NOW
1. CHOCOLATE BROWN
Style Notes: For its luxurious quality and depth of tone, the chocolate-brown color trend is a firm favorite among fashion people for autumn. Jolie nodded to the growing color trend in a low-key way this week by wearing a pretty draped dress. Opt for it in place of black for a striking yet wearable base which is perfect for styling across the cooler months.
