Actress Angelina Jolie looked graceful and elegant at the premiere of Couture, a new drama movie which premiered at the Auditorium Parco Della Musica on Saturday October 18. The star wore a stunning backless black gown, which showcased her many tattoos. It is believed the Maria actress, 50, has around 20 tattoos which take up most of her back. The caped gown was draped over her shoulders, and she teamed it with sheer black stockings and black stiletto ankle boots, adding an oversized ring and matching earrings.
According to the website Sak Yang Chiang Mai, the tattoos on Angelina’s back are the work of tattoo artist Ajarn Noo Kanpai, who is based in Bangkok, Thailand. The Thai Sak Yant tattoos were done over a period of years, and the upper pieces of artwork are frequently visible when Jolie does events.
The mother-of-six smiled happily on the red carpet and signed autographs for the crowds of fans gathered at the event. Also in attendance were Louis Garrel, Alice Winocour and Anyier Anei. Angelina’s new movie follows American filmmaker Maxine (played by Angelina) who arrives in Paris for Fashion Week, but then takes on a life-and-death journey, where she is forced to tackle some tough challenges.
