A tour de force, Halle Berry is the definition of Hollywood royalty. An Academy Award-winning actress, renowned activist and cultural icon, the A-lister has also made headlines with her fun and fearless style on the red carpet. In honour of Halle's 60th birthday on 14 August, we're taking a trip down memory lane, and remembering her best looks from the Oscars, Golden Globes, and more high-profile events.
From custom Christian Siriano to Marchesa couture, the Crime 101 star has given us major fashion envy over the years, but these are the looks that live rent-free in our minds…
Custom Christian Siriano
Stepping out in custom Christian Siriano, Halle well and truly stole the show at the 97th Annual Academy Awards in 2025. Shimmering as she walked the carpet, the A-lister opted for a corseted gown adorned with 7,000 mirrored crystals. A milestone moment for the American designer, following her appearance, Christian Siriano declared: "My entire career I wanted to dress one person at the Oscars, and that's Halle Berry. It's different for her, it's metallic, it's iridescent."

Leaning into boudoir chic, Halle debuted a lingerie-inspired look at the 2011 Golden Globes. Turning to French fashion house Nina Ricci, the Catwoman star teamed her tulle and satin gown with statement silver jewellery and stilettos.Â

Forget the Odyssey press tour, Halle did it first. Exuding star power at the 95th Annual Academy Awards, the mum-of-two gave off Greek goddess vibes in an etheral Tamara Ralph gown that flowed like a dream. Complete with a daring thigh-high split and glittery rosettes embellished along the neckline, Halle's look certainly turned heads.Â

A career milestone, in 2007 Halle received her stark on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Ever the sartorial maven, the actress turned to Dolce & Gabbana for her special moment, donning a black bodycon midi with a sheer polka-dot top.Â
