Angelina Jolie was left frockless for Sunday’s Academy Awards after the gown she’d planned to wear was stolen from the car of British designer Scott Henshall.
The $4,700 gown was among seven dresses, jewelry and accessories worth a total of $62,400 that were snatched from the back of the designer’s convertible in London’s fashionable Knightsbridge district Wednesday, said spokesman Paul Bhari.
A “devastated” Henshall flew to Los Angeles with alternative dresses for Jolie to consider, Bhari said.
Jolie, the 27-year-old star of “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider,” won a supporting-actress Oscar for 1999’s “Girl, Interrupted.” Her outfit was a body-hugging, red corset dress decorated with cherubs.
