Halle Berry Slips Back into Her Iconic Sheer Gown from the 2002 Oscars — 22 Years After Her Historic Win

Halle Berry is timeless.

Twenty-two years after her historic win at the 2002 Oscars, the actress, 58, rewore the iconic sheer Elie Saab gown she wore to the ceremony. For her role in 2001's Monster's Ball, Berry became the first Black woman to take home the award for Best Actress. It was also the actress' first Oscar win.

Recreating the memorable evening, Berry appeared at the 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Wednesday, Nov. 13, in the very same dress. The evening, which celebrated the brand's 45th anniversary, boasted a star-studded guest list as well as performances by Celine Dion, Jennifer Lopez, Camila Cabello, Nancy Ajram and Amr Diab.

Berry looked as radiant as ever in the stunning gown, which features a mesh bodice adorned with floral appliqués and a silky asymmetrical skirt. She added a pair of oversize gemstone earrings and wore her hair in a sleek top knot.

Berry shared a video of her runway moment after the Saudia Arabia show on Instagram, writing in the caption, "There are some moments in life that just happen and they change our lives forever! Winning an Academy Award in my @eliesaabworld gown was one of those moments for me! Thank you Mr. Saab for being a part of the tapestry of my life as we have been inextricably connected for 22 years now! It was my honor to celebrate you and your 1001 Seasons. Here’s wishing you many more glorious years of joy, creativity and glamour!"

In 2002, Berry had a pixie cut, a signature look that she wore during the '90s and early 2000s. She later revealed that it wasn’t until after she cut her long hair that she finally landed her first acting gig as Emily Franklin on the 1980’s sitcom Living Dolls.

“I think that was because the directors and producers actually saw me,” the Catwoman actress told InStyle in 2023. while reflecting on past cover shoots for the fashion magazine’s 25th Anniversary Issue. “Before that, I had long hair like every other girl like me. When I got this haircut, I felt like my best self.”

Also in 2023, Berry shared that the Elie Saab gown from her historic Oscars win had found a new home at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, where it represented a piece of Hollywood history.

"This moment is so much bigger than me," Berry said in her emotional 2002 acceptance speech. "This moment is for Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, Diahann Carroll. It's for the women that stand beside me, Jada Pinkett, Angela Bassett, Vivica Fox. And it's for every nameless, faceless woman of color that now has a chance because this door tonight now has been opened."

"Not only will this historic @eliesaabworld gown remain in the expert care of the museum's curators and conservators, but it will also be accessible to generations of people for whom the dress also holds meaning and forever be a reminder that all things are possible. Thank you @academymuseum!" she wrote.
