While fashion fads flicker and fade, Halle Berry continues to reign supreme with a signature style that defies time—lingerie stying. Halle Berry once again embraced her signature sheer style at CinemaCon 2025, turning heads in a lingerie-inspired look while promoting her upcoming film Crime 101 alongside Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo.
Halle Berry’s all-black ensemble was a striking blend of elegance and edge. She wore a daring sheer corset top adorned with delicate floral embellishments, subtly visible beneath her blazer. Her double-breasted skirt, designed to resemble an inverted coat, featured a wrap silhouette with a dramatic front slit that echoed the high vent in the back—adding just the right touch of skin-revealing intrigue. Completing the look, Berry stepped out in pointed black pumps reminiscent of the noughties, embellished with rows of silver gems along the sides for a touch of vintage glamour.
Halle Berry’s affinity for lingerie-inspired fashion is far from a passing phase—it’s a signature. At the LA premiere of The Union last summer, she delivered one of her most striking red carpet moments in a sheer lace bodysuit with a coordinating knee-length skirt by La Perla, effortlessly blending elegance with edge. But this wasn’t a bold new direction—it was a continuation of a style legacy years in the making.
Berry’s relationship with sheer, body-skimming silhouettes can be traced back to the 2002 Academy Awards, where she made history as the first Black woman to win Best Actress—while wearing a now-iconic, embroidered Elie Saab gown that became a defining moment in Oscar fashion. In a fitting full-circle tribute, she made a surprise appearance at Elie Saab’s runway show in Riyadh last year, paying homage to the dress—and the moment—that solidified her status as a red carpet trailblazer.
