“The Most Beautiful Girl” Is All Grown Up Now — but Her New Look Sparks Heated Controversy

Back in 2012, Angelina Jolie stole the spotlight at the Academy Awards in a now-legendary Versace gown, remembered worldwide for its daring thigh-high slit. More than a decade later, the actress decided to recreate that unforgettable moment — this time at the Toronto Film Festival, where she turned heads in a stunning brown maxi coat with a dramatic slit. The bold fashion choice instantly sparked excitement, with fans and fashion critics alike rushing to share their reactions.
At the 2012 Oscars, Angelina Jolie became the undeniable star of the night thanks to her iconic Versace gown with its daring thigh-high slit that made headlines around the world. Years later, the actress decided to recreate that legendary moment: at the world premiere of Couture during the Toronto Film Festival, she stunned in a luxurious brown maxi coat with a dramatic slit that showed off her endless legs.
Jolie’s look instantly set the internet buzzing — fans and critics alike rushed to comment on her appearance, drawing comparisons between this new look and the unforgettable fashion moment from a decade ago.
Another recent public appearance by Angelina Jolie stirred just as much conversation, though for different reasons. Jolie — a Best Actress nominee in a Motion Picture, Drama for her role in Maria — turned heads in a shimmering silver McQueen gown that gracefully outlined her figure. The design included delicate sheer panels and tasseled detailing along the hem, giving the classic silhouette a fresh edge. Completing the look, she slipped on metallic dark-gold heels, ensuring her red carpet moment was nothing short of unforgettable.
Her long locks were styled in a half-up, half-down ‘do, with soft waves cascading over her shoulders. She accessorized with bold silver earrings and matching rings, each adorned with tassel-inspired accents that echoed the dress.
For makeup, Jolie opted for understated elegance: defined lashes with mascara, a hint of shadow to brighten the eyes, and a sweep of warm blush to emphasize her cheekbones. A glossy nude lip tied it all together, leaving her with a glowing, timeless finish.
Fans were mesmerized by the actress’s graceful appearance and ageless beauty, flooding social media with admiration. Comments poured in, including: “Angelina looks like a classic, beautiful movie star,” and “She looks insanely beautiful!” One admirer shared, “Angelina is timeless,” while another noted, “Both mother and daughter look elegant and beautiful.”
The compliments didn’t stop there. Another person enthused, “Angelina’s skin is looking smooth and flawless, and whoever did her makeup needs to give us a tutorial. I also really like her dress and the way it moves. Beautiful.”
However, not everyone shared the same admiration. Some critics felt her appearance was less flattering, with remarks such as, “She is looking pretty weathered,” and “She looks like a wax figure... Not at all appealing.” One comment went further: “Gray dress to match her gray skin! She used to have light in her eyes and vibrancy in her looks; very sad, she looks sad and unhappy and not well.” Another added bluntly, “That color washes her out.”
The critiques continued: “Jolie looks like an aging ice skater with that cheesy glitter outfit,” wrote one user. Another observed, “AJ has always looked older than she is. But she looks older here than my mother in her 70s. Great skin, but old.” To top it off, a final comment suggested, “She could use a new haircut or color and a spray tan.”
Angelina Jolie’s lighter hair color continues to spark debate among fans and fashion watchers.
