Angelina Jolie Stuns at Paris Premiere

Angelina Jolie graced the Paris premiere of her latest film, 'Couture,' held at the iconic Pathé Palace on February 9. The actress made a striking entrance in a sheer, floor-length gown that perfectly captured the essence of the film's Parisian backdrop. With intricate metallic beading creating a silver floral design, Jolie's dress was nothing short of a masterpiece.

A Dress to Remember

The gown featured a fitted silhouette with short sleeves, exquisitely adorned with floral embellishments and finished with delicate fringe that swayed with her every step. Jolie kept her accessories understated, opting for pointed-toe black heels and minimal jewelry, letting the dress take center stage.

“It’s very personal to me, and women’s health and women’s cancers are very personal to me,” Jolie shared during a Deadline panel at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, reflecting on her role in the film.

Inside the Film 'Couture'

'Couture' is directed by Alice Winocour and tells the poignant story of Maxine Walker, played by Jolie, an American filmmaker who navigates the challenges of a breast cancer diagnosis during the bustling Paris Fashion Week. The film isn't just about fashion; it delves deeper into personal and emotional narratives.

A Story Beyond Fashion

Director Alice Winocour emphasized that the film transcends the fashion industry. In a September interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she explained, “It’s a film about a woman who learned she has a cancer; it’s not a film about cancer.” The narrative also follows a young African girl facing the harsh realities of Paris, highlighting themes of solidarity and connection among women.

Winocour aimed to showcase the emotional bonds between the characters, stating, “I wanted to show solidarity between women.” She described 'Couture' as a tale of "sharing stitches—how you can connect with people who come from very different worlds."
