Get Angelina Jolie Burberry Campaign On A Kensington Khaki Heritage Trench Coat

Angelina Jolie has for the past couple of months been dressing in 50 shades of beige. There was the champagne-hued Atelier Jolie column she wore to the AFI Fest, the Tom Ford kaftan, Tamara Ralph gown and short-sleeved Dior coat she wore in Venice, and the knitted Brunello Cucinelli shrug and coordinating dress she wore to the Telluride Film Festival not long afterwards.

But in the case of Jolie – a former UN Refugee Agency Goodwill Ambassador who now runs a socially-conscious fashion brand in partnership with refugee organisations – I would unpack her enthusiasm for neutrals another way, suggesting a subtle semaphoring of the organic, sustainable and responsible principles that grow from the earth up.

The actor was yesterday evening photographed at a screening of MariaDB in New York, dressed in a classic beige trench, an aqueous slip and sensible pumps. She wasn’t, but could have been, starring in a festive Burberry campaign. Perhaps it’s time Daniel Lee welcomed Jolie into his fold? Angelina is not British, of course, but she does dress with the same qualities associated with heritage clothing: made to last, both in style – never high fashion, thus never out of fashion – and in material. That is an enticing prospect at a moment when so many of the clothes celebrities wear feel disposable, beige.
