In honour of her starring role in the sequel, , together with her upcoming role as Thena in Marvel’s film, Angelina Jolie graced Disney’s D23 Expo, which took place in Los Angeles on August 24, with her fashion-forward presence.
Jolie took to the event in a moody black dress, which featured a thigh-high split reminiscent of the style she made famous with the Atelier Versace gown she wore to the Academy Awards in 2012. While said look may have spawned a sea of memes when the actress posed for pictures with her leg visibly out of the split, it has become one that many have mimicked since.

Thanks to the fitted bodice and tight waistline of the dress, the thigh-high split sat permanently open with little effort.
