Well, hell. If those are what’s hot for spring, I’m in big trouble.

    I didn’t even notice the netting or the mic because I couldn’t stop staring at the BOOBS. Put it away, lady! Terrible outfit.

    This dress probably looked OK when she was standing up. Unfortunately, so many celebs and their stylists forget to do a sit test for interview show outfits. How many times have you seen starlets nervously gluing their hands to their exposed thighs as they realize their goodies are falling out when they sit down on camera in a super short skirt?

      It didn’t but all my screen grabs were blurry.

        It’s also bulgy when she’s sitting. And we all know how super-fit Berry is, so that is clearly the fault of the dress.

        Just bad, all around.

          I am beginning to believe the interwebs rumors that she is CRAY-CRAY. Like that outfit.

      Agree. The dress probably looks much better when she is standing. Sitting, it makes her girls look too big and droopy and just overexposed in general. And her mic looks like a big tick attached itself to her collarbone.

      I was thinking the same thing – that I bet it looks great standing up. But sitting down, and with a mic that looks like it might be a large tumor (say, if you’re watching the TV in bed without your glasses on, and you have to fumble around in the nightstand for said glasses to make sure you’re seeing what you think you’re seeing – hypothetically speaking)… it’s just not good.

    Doesn’t she get it? All she has to do is smile and cameras melt. She doesn’t have to try.

    My goodness, we are seeing a lot of boob here. Just too darn much. I’m not even sure how this would look standing — it’s just so naked. The illusion netting is almost funny. Please, Halle, you are one of the most beautiful women in the world. Just wear a simple, boob-covering LBD and some killer shoes and you’re all set.

      I definitely want to send her on some kind of self-love retreat. She is stunning beyond words but mostly I just feel so uncomfortable for her because she always seems so desperate to prove it.

      • Helen

        And stop doing that stupid Jersey Shore guy thing with your hair! There are plenty of other ways to wear a pixie that would look age-, gender-, and occasion-appropriate, and would be PRETTY. This is not among them.

        • tigers4us
          +7

          I agree, Helen. It’s no longer “edgy”, just unbecoming (and boring).

        • Mokalatte
          +3

          Boring, it might be; as she has worn it like this for a long time. But, Jershey Shore dudes did not create that trend. She was wearing her hair this way, long before the guidos (no offense by that name, as I love a guido) made it big on TV.

    Wow! Her stylist HATES her.

    why is she always so desperate :(

  7. Kate

    I will say that that is some GREAT illusion netting because it’s almost impossible to see.

    However, I don’t really want to be seeing quite so much boob…on anyone.

  8. Stefanie

    I thinking Halle isnt comfortable with aging so she’s gone into “flaunt the goods” mode.

    • Claire1
      +6

      That is my first thought too.
      And jeeze! It goes to show how mean we are to ourselves…. I mean she is Halle Freakin’ BERRY!
      If this is how she responds…I should be throwing on booty shorts and fringed bikini top with my clear stilettos to go shopping.

  9. Clara

    Ug. The netting makes it even worse. Bad enough the boobs are trying to escape. Couldn’t they at least adjust the netting to hike the top up a few inches, keep those girls up and proud? Halie, what happened?

  10. maryse

    her boobs in that dress look like mine when i’m not wearing a bra and am sitting around in my house in an old t-shirt and sweat pants.

  11. Amberoni13

    And just a thought, but isn’t she still a makeup rep? Good grief, she should have better people. Her face should not be that hard to mess up with makeup. I get that she likes a nude lip, and it works for her most of the time, but this looks…. tired. And since I assume she’s wearing makeup (a ton, probs), I completely blame the makeup and NOT the face. And yeah, put it away for the entirety of the chin down.

  12. junaitatres

    When I glanced at the first picture, I thought the microphone was some weird necklace. Anywho, her clothes lately reek of desperation. She is gorgeous and is aging beautifully. There’s no need to let it all hang out.

  13. Chasmosaur

    I saw a headline for this earlier today “Leno can’t stop looking at Halle Berry’s Breasts”.

    I can’t either. I mean, my god – that’s a dress that brings the eye down to her chest. Even with that gorgeous face.

  14. tigers4us

    The dress itself is very nice but made for a small-busted woman. On Halle Berry, the look leans toward cheap and desperate. She has certainly not embraced the “less is more” fashion philosophy lately.

  15. Faye

    Guess those rumors about her and Martinez splitting up are true? Because if this isn’t screaming, “Hey, I’m available!,” I don’t know what it’s supposed to be saying.

  16. Liz985

    Wow, talk about pulling back the curtain on the great and powerful Oz! In any other dress, her chest area looks spectacular (and she, in general, looks spectacular) and results in all the superlatives about looking so great for her age. This dress clearly emphasizes that Ms. Berry, like us all, is fighting gravity — and not winning.

  17. Rachael

    We GET it, Halle Berry. You still look young and amazing. You don’t have to beat us over the head with it to make that point. (In fact, I think that’s having the opposite effect.)

  18. Marilu Bree
    +11

    So tired of hearing, “she’s Halle Berry the most beautiful blah blah blah..not aging blah blah blah.

    She’s is even featured and mocha skinned and that’s great.
    Her eyes are tired and lined and are sinking back in her head. Nothing wrong with that. But I think Sandra Bullock is winning this hand.

    She is what she is. Bug shit crazy, stupid hair and life choices, tacky clothes.

    I’m not a fan since the hit and run. So when she wears stuff like this, I’m like, “yesssssss!”

    • TonyG

      Ouch!

      • Helen
        +7

        The hit and run bothers me, too – particularly her referring to it as, “My tragedy.” Uh, no. It was a tragedy for the woman you hit, whose body will never be the same due to those injuries, you narcissistic freak.

        She is, however, beautiful. This dress (and makeup, agreeing with Amberoni) is just all kinds of wrong.

    • Cassandra

      Dude. What happened to make you such a bitter person? And duh her eyes are lined. She’s around 50 years old! She still looks amazing regardless.

    • Miss Louise
      +6

      Yes, the hit-and-run is always there at the back of my mind, too. I also feel a bit divided about fussing over someone’s amazing beauty when we all know they’ve had cosmetic surgery. I can’t do the ‘yeah her nose is fake, but give me the number of her surgeon!” thing. I know this sounds judgmental – but I haven’t been able to resolve this one in my head at all.

  19. Rigor_Mortis

    Oh come on, Halle. You’re super hot, we all get it. Now leave something for the imagination, you’re actually a lot sexier when you do it!

  20. Katya

    Just looking at the way this fits and the lack of support gives me sympathy pains in the girls . . . .

  21. Carol

    I second and third the motions for desperation … and agree she looks like she needs a good night’s sleep … and a shot of renewed self-confidence.

  22. TonyG

    In terms of the dress, it actually looks like a very interesting concept even if it can’t handle Halle’s boobs when she sits.

    Grown women really don’t need to be modest in their dress. That sounds so regressive, Puritanical, out-dated chastising. Can’t it be that she just likes to show her curves? She already knows she doesn’t have to, but she wants to. Not a problem for me.

    • Nancy
      +6

      Showing her curves is one thing. Wearing a dress in which the world can see almost her entire breast on a network tv show is pushing the envelope, in my,puritanical opinion. And just because we can doesn’t mean we should. It’s degrading to rely on our breasts to get attention.

      • Ellelake
        +2

        Showing her curves is fine if she carries it off, in this case the dress is wearing her. Would a bolero be frumpy? How about a Chiarro boa? I love boas! Who could sit down in this dress?

        • Guerra

          Sofia vegara shows her curves, halle shows her entire breast! There is a difference

    @ glee – I agree; she comes across as seriously nutty if you read her interviews against the grain. And agree with all others that this is just sad. Halle, you are hot. You have a gorgeous face and beautiful skin and a slammin’ bod. Now keep it under wraps. See? That’s the difference between classy-sexy and trashy-slutty.

    Did anyone see this interview? Would love to know Leno’s reaction.

  27. Hima

    Ok, I really don’t like the dress in general, but it’s particularly terrible for a talk show appearance. There’s definitely a difference – or SHOULD be – between red carpet/movie premiere/party looks and talk show looks. (That difference is mostly about standing vs sitting). And Halle apparenly does not understand that.

  28. Alicia
    +13

    This dress enables the viewer to imagine exactly what Halle Berry would look like if she were sitting there naked. Her boobs would sit exactly that way, a little saggy, no support. Guys probably love it, but I find it kind of gross.

    Why in the world would an actress with an Academy Award on her resume choose to show up on a talk show looking like a Real Housewife who feels she’s being outrageous and brave by taking out her weave?

    Who is she, Pam Anderson? When your dress makes a bath towel look conservative, it’s time to reconsider your clothing selection.

    “It’s SO MUCH more than Halle Berry needs to do to remind us that she’s Halle Berry.” I feel like that’s her modus operandi lately. She’s under the impression that she HAS to give us glimpses of her boobs, her legs, or her boobs AND her legs. Put it away, honey.

  37. Shoe-zie

    Halle Berry and Heidi Klum seem to be sharing the same mid-life crisis – too much all the time.

  38. Chrissy

    For at least the last year, Halle has been trying way too hard to look young and sexy. Same with Heidi Klum, I agree. Put it away already!

  39. Rina

    No problem with a grown woman flaunting it, but I agree the dress is wearing her. The bodice presents as one long, vertical rectangle over each breast so just draws the eye downnnnn…. Something with support would have been much more attractive.

  40. Lori

    For someone who once shot off her mouth about how her looks never got her anything, she sure is trying awfully hard to be as naked as possible on network TV.

    When I see someone of Ms. Berry’s stature in this kind of desperation (look at me, look at me) outfit it makes me feel Seth McFarlane was right on mocking the movie industry boob parade. But its one thing when you choose, or have it foisted on you, to do it in a film but when you do it to yourself, in an attempt to seek publicity so people will go see your new and I’m guessing dreadful film, who you gonna blame? You sure can’t get high and mighty or correctly take offense at some ribbing that hits the mark oh so much.

    If I had such a gorgeous decolletage and even more spectacular rack, I’d have no compunctions about letting the rest of the world know, too. Beauty like that should be shared and enjoyed by all. I don’t care if she’s crazy or not–she’s beautiful and I like the chance to appreciate that.
