The leg went viral, the image went everywhere. Sometimes you don\u2019t know which dress is the best, but when you see someone wearing the dress it can become fantastic.\u201d Jolie attended the Academy Awards that year to present the winner for best adapted screenplay. For the occasion, she chose a black Atelier Versace strapless gown with a thigh-high split that left her leg entirely exposed for much of the night. The image immediately went viral on social media and the actor&#8217;s leg even inspired its own Twitter account called @AngiesRightLeg, accumulating over 14,000 followers overnight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">In 2019, Jolie addressed the now-iconic red carpet moment during an interview with <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/extratv.com\/2019\/10\/01\/article-2019-10-01-family-night-for-angelina-jolie-at-maleficent-sequel-premiere\/\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/extratv.com\/2019\/10\/01\/article-2019-10-01-family-night-for-angelina-jolie-at-maleficent-sequel-premiere\/&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/extratv.com\/2019\/10\/01\/article-2019-10-01-family-night-for-angelina-jolie-at-maleficent-sequel-premiere\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Extra<\/em><\/a> at the premiere of her film, <em>Maleficent: Mistress of Evil<\/em>. \u201cThere&#8217;s a whole longer story behind that,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cI had a more complicated dress and I wore the more comfortable dress, which was that one, and I think I was just so comfortable that\u2026I think when you feel comfortable, when you feel yourself\u2014which is very much the theme of the film, and we know this in life\u2014you embrace it.

Now every fashion house understands the importance of the red carpet. What I care about more is seeing young generations wear Versace,\u201d she explained. \u201cKids\u2014they look at the Versace archive and they write to me: Can I buy this? How much does it cost?
