Angelina Jolie<\/a> drew gasps from the media pit when she appeared on the red carpet at the New York premiere of her critically acclaimed film Maria <\/em>on September 29. For the occasion, the actor, 49, wore an ivory pleated and draped gown by French couturier Madame Gr\u00e8s, dating back to 1956. It was sourced from Amal Clooney\u2019s go-to vintage dealer, Mon Vintage. (The humanitarian lawyer earned her fashion stripes by searching for those John Galliano-era Dior slip gowns that made that desk-to-date-night transformation all the more legendary.)<\/p>\n

\u201cAngelina is truly the ultimate Mon Vintage<\/a> muse,\u201d founder and Vestiaire Collective alum Marie Blanchet told\u00a0Vogue<\/em><\/a>. \u201cShe\u2019s a true Hollywood star in the 1940s and 50s sense\u2014she picked the gown from our Paris showroom herself, making it all feel very personal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly she, who embodies timeless elegance, was worthy of reviving this emblematic masterpiece that is this Madame Gr\u00e8s Work of Art,\u201d Blanchet further wrote on her Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Embracing the allure of vintage wares is fast becoming a trend. Recently, at the MTV Video Music Awards<\/a>, Sabrina Carpenter wore a pearlescent floor-length gown by Bob Mackie, the same dress worn by Madonna to the 1991 Academy Awards. Elsewhere, Halsey revived a piece from Versace which Elizabeth Hurley famously donned at the grand opening of the Versace boutique in New York City in 1996. And speaking of vintage and Jolie, Sydney Sweeney wore\u00a0the same plunging white gown\u00a0by Marc Bouwer that Jolie<\/a> wore to the Oscars back in 2004, to this year\u2019s Vanity Fair<\/em>\u00a0Oscars party.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cVintage is the best years; it is those moments in fashion that were important; the definitive shows, the definitive pieces; a change of line, a change of cut; a pop-culture [sensation],\u201d Blanchet said in an interview<\/a> in 2022.<\/p>\n

In Maria<\/em>, Jolie portrays the legendary Maria Callas, the iconic opera singer whose tumultuous life and career are explored against the backdrop of her passionate love affair with Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. The film delves into Callas\u2019 rise to fame, her struggles with personal insecurities, and the complexities of her relationships, particularly the heartbreak she faced when Onassis left her for Jacqueline Kennedy. The film received an eight-minute standing ovation at the Venice International Film Festival<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Maria<\/em> will be available to stream on Netflix on December 11.<\/span><\/p>\n
