Halle Berry Stuns In LaQuan Smith Dress And Sparks Fashion Debate

Berry goes on reaffirming her status as an icon of style with the jaw-dropping shot of her in a custom LaQuan Smith with the caption, ‘theme so nice, had to give it to you twice.’ Basically, the Oscar winner explained that two dresses were provided for her by designer LaQuan Smith for an event; LaQuan Smith himself favored one and Berry wore that on the carpet, although she teased that she could have easily worn either. Alongside the tweet was a breathtaking image of Berry dripping in a sleek black design, the sort that clings to every curve, channeling big-time old Hollywood glamour with a modern edge, courtesy of that dramatic top hat.

The online was, of course, all sorts of crazy! Responses flooded in from outright praise to weigh ins on which dress was the better choice. Stranger summed up the vibe appropriately: ‘You are serving Harlem Renaissance realness with a LaQuan Smith twist-top hat and all, proving style knows no limits.’ CHERRY, meanwhile, threw shade: ‘This one is a 10+. The one worn at the Gala was a 10, minus exposing of the body part. YOU are worth more than some sheer clothing exposure.’ Oof. Shots fired.

Shade-shooting was not everyone’s cup of tea. Miss E went peak hype, screaming, ‘This! Is! It, the back is a statement!!!! The hat is the added necessity! Where is your skinny long cigarette! Yes😍’ Mood. Berry’s ability to attract attention with a single outfit pic is unmatched. Weird compliments came from a creative angle from aldi404, with a pun: ‘I love this Berry much.’ Why not?

Some gaze-in-roundabout-words-to-the-point, The Spartan Hounds said, ‘Top and bottom mismatched like a mermaid. You made the right choice.’ Meanwhile, in keeping it short, Hope Brown said, ‘I like this one better,’ which just goes ahead proving just how divisive fashion opinions are.

Let’s be real, though: Whether you favored this fave or the one she did wear, Berry stays winning. Even Queen Leo harked back to the old 2002 Monster’s Ball-era Berry days: ‘Honey anything that you wear would make you the baddest b on earth.’ True.

Here we go: Berry’s tweet, of course, was flexing; let’s be honest. But it was also another indication of how Berry continues to effortlessly doling out style. And judging by the response, people are way too far from over it. So, Halle, keep giving her looks twice, thrice-I mean, for as many times as you want. We ain’t complaining.

Side note: Can we just talk about how LaQuan Smith just casually made two showstopping dresses for her? Talent recognizes talent, and this collab is proof.
