Halle Berry stuns in sculptural Gaurav Gupta gown at Cannes Chopard dinner
Halle Berry delivered a dramatic fashion moment at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, bringing high-octane glamour to the Chopard 'Caroline's Universe' Dinner held on May 19. Dressed in a sculptural corseted gown from Indian designer Gaurav Gupta's autumn-winter 2024 couture collection, titled Jyotirgamaya, the Oscar-winning actor turned heads with her commanding presence and impeccable styling.
Berry's strapless gown came in a deep wine or Bordeaux hue, and featured a boned bodice, thigh-high slit, and dramatic, spiral-like draping that coiled from her waist to the floor. The architectural flourish, a signature of Gaurav Gupta's sculptural aesthetic—gave the illusion of fluid movement, transforming the gown into a wearable piece of modern art. The theatrical 3D design on the hip created a striking silhouette, adding to the drama of the overall look.
Originally intended for her Cannes red carpet appearance, the gown had to be switched out due to the festival's updated dress code, which now restricts ensembles with overt nudity and large trains. Instead, Berry chose a more understated Jacquemus black-and-white striped halter-neck gown for the red carpet. However, she still ensured that Gupta's design had its moment in the spotlight, saving it for the exclusive Chopard dinner event.

Dressed in a powder-blue cottagecore dress, Raashii looked fresh, calm, and completely in her element. The shade worked beautifully against her warm skin tone, and the flow of the fabric added a quiet romance to the frame. Her hair, softly curled and left loose, framed her face without trying too hard. Makeup was barely there, just enough to highlight her natural glow. And then there's the setting, the classic black-and-yellow Mumbai taxi, windows framing the blur of the city outside. That contrast between the rush of the streets and her calm, poised presence made the images so striking. Raashii's style has always been about striking that perfect middle ground. One day she's serving full-on glamour in a sculpted evening gown, the next she's draped in a silk sari that feels timeless yet fresh, and on another day she's strolling around in easy-breezy casuals. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play this game for 3 minutes, if you own a mouse Undo No matter the outfit, there's a certain ease in the way she wears it, like it belongs to her, not just to the occasion.
