 Previously in this feature, we featured Anne Hathaway wearing a Cartier Tank, but now we'd like to introduce another beautiful tankist from Hollywood: Angelina Jolie. This photo was taken in Manhattan in 2011. The black tank paired with a white pantsuit enhances her intellectual aura.


Cartier "Must de Cartier Tank"

 While it's difficult to identify from this angle, the Tank with the black dial is likely a model from the "Must de Cartier" collection, a collection derived from the Tank that Cartier has produced in large numbers since the 1970s.
 At the time of the creation of this collection, Cartier was led by Robert Hoch, who had achieved great success with the Cartier Lighter in 1968. This was during the post-war period of economic growth known as the "Glorious Thirty Years," when the luxury goods market was beginning to undergo transformation. Entrusted with the future of the brand, he rode the wave of the times, preserving the charm of the Tank while adding an interpretation of industrial design. The result was the Must de Cartier, and thanks to Robert Hoch's foresight, Cartier became known around the world.

 Angelina Jolie is also a Tankist and a fan of many other Tank tops. The Hollywood actress is known for her involvement in numerous charitable causes and for founding the Jolie-Pitt Foundation with her ex-husband Brad Pitt. She has also served as a special envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and a visiting professor at the London School of Economics. In her busy, time-pressed days, she now finds herself increasingly appearing in public in a position of responsibility, and her Tank tops likely support her in this powerful and beautiful way.
