Halle Berry Re-Wears Her 2002 Oscars Naked Dress on the Elie Saab Runway

Halle Berry poses with her Actress in a Leading Role Oscar for "Monster's Ball" at the 2002 award show, wearing a maroon naked dress from Elie Saab.

Halle Berry's burgundy Elie Saab dress is to her what the tropical print Versace gown is to Jennifer Lopez. Over the years, it has become recognized as the actor's greatest look of all time and, like J.Lo, Berry has reprised the iconic design on the runway.

On Nov. 13, the actor took the stage at Elie Saab's 1001 Seasons runway show, an event celebrating the brand's 45-year anniversary, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. While Jennifer Lopez performed in a new, glittery bodysuit, Berry wore a number from Saab's newest collection. A press release said the lineup aims to "reinterpret the classic tales through a modern, luxurious lens." Berry's specific gown was a recreation of her 2002 Oscars dress, worn to accept the Actress in a Lead Role Academy Award for her performance in Monster's Ball.
