ANGIE'S STYLING!

SHE can tick many things off her bucket list, can Angelina Jolie. Wild oats: sown. Oscar: won. Fortune: made. Kids: accumulated.

Globe: trotted. Mission to do good: accomplished.

But there's one area Angie (48) has only just ventured into and that's the world of fashion.

Which is quite hard to believe, really, considering she's regarded as one of the planet's most gorgeous and stylish women.

The launch of Atelier Jolie has made her the latest big Hollywood name to bring out a fashion label - and Angie being Angie, this one comes with meaning too.

"I'm starting something new today, she announced on Instagram recently.

"A collective where everyone can create.

"Atelier Jolie is a place for creative people to collaborate with a skilled and diverse family of expert tailors, pattern makers and artisans from around the world" The collection - a collaboration with French luxury brand Chloé - consists of eveningwear and will "feature fluid silhouettes and tactile designs while offering a timeless aesthetic in line with Angie's vision to create one-of-a-kind pieces that embody creativity and purpose", the fashion house says.

In layman's language that basically means a whole lot of lovely clothes based on the gowns and things Angie has worn to fancy functions over the years.

What's more, the range will make use of deadstock fabric - rolls of material unsold by fabric mills or left over from a brand's production run - to create the clothing.

It's all about sustainability, upcycling (transforming waste materials or byproducts into something useful), creating jobs and making people more aware of doing the right thing.

"We will bring together a diverse team, including apprenticeships for refugees and other talented, underappreciated groups, with positions of dignity based on skill," a post heralding the launch of the brand says.
