Angelina Jolie Loving The Leather Look: Then And Now

Angelina Jolie has moved away from her gothic roots in recent years so it was a welcome sight to see her slinking up the red carpet in a form-fitting leather-look dress this week.

The star's carefully-crafted image has undergone something of an overhaul since she began working on her rainbow family in 2002.

The actress - and self-confessed S&M fan - has gradually ditched the black hair, dark outfits and dramatic make-up that contributed to her edgy allure, in favour of more traditional 'Hollywood' glamour.

But teaming her black strapless leather-look dress with highlighted hair and soft make up at the Los Angeles premiere of Brad's movie Inglourious Basterds created a stunning look that brought her old image bang up to date.

It's good to see 'dangerous' Angie hasn't been banished for good!
