Angelina Jolie was recently seen sporting a lighter blond hair color as she exited her newly-opened clothing store, Atelier Jolie, in New York City. The 48-year-old actress, known for her role in 'Maleficent,' appeared almost unrecognizable with her highlighted strands and stylish ensemble.
Jolie's hair was styled in a fresh blowout, featuring an off-center part and soft angles that complemented her facial features. She was elegantly dressed in a long black wool peacoat over a white top, accessorized with a large black crossbody messenger bag bearing a quote from her film 'Girl, Interrupted.'
Having started lightening her hair last year, Jolie has ventured into the fashion industry with the opening of her clothing store in a NoHo space previously occupied by Jean-Michel Basquiat. She has expressed her commitment to ethical sourcing and production, establishing a committee to guide her brand's approach.
Atelier Jolie not only showcases her own brand but also features other sustainable labels. The retail space includes a cafe called Eat Offbeat, managed by refugee and immigrant chefs, aligning with Jolie's values of social responsibility.
When it comes to fashion, Jolie revealed her preference for oversized coats from Saint Laurent and Celine, which she believes project an image of 'unflappable, ladylike safety' to her children. She humorously mentioned her daughter's observation that she wears too many trench coats, explaining that it's a personal style choice.
Jolie, who shares six children with ex-husband Brad Pitt, emphasized the importance of conscious consumerism and treating people well in the fashion industry. Her dedication to creating a positive impact through her business endeavors reflects her commitment to sustainability and ethical practices.
