For many monochrome dressers, the arrival of mid-twenties temperatures can cause something of an existential and aesthetic crisis. Do you commit and go full summer goth girl? Maybe throw caution to the wind and embrace your Euro summer persona with a new Pucci print? Or perhaps, withdraw from public life entirely until back-to-school season rolls around? Luckily for all those grappling with these wardrobe conundrums, Angelina Jolie is here to provide a little reassurance that all-black summer style is still an entirely chic proposition.

Attending a screening of Couture last night in New York City, Jolie wore the ultimate summer outfit for anyone allergic to a pastel palette or, god forbid, florals. Pairing a strapless Gucci gown and aviator shades with an exceptional blow-dry, the actor confirmed this simple but effective combo as the go-to option for anyone looking to channel a little A-lister style at the family BBQ this summer. Even if a Gucci gown may be out of your summer budget (those girls’ trips to the Cyclades come at a cost), we all have a Grecian maxi dress and oversized shades within reach.
