When
it
comes
to
the
Oscars,
the
fashion
is
second
only
to
the
films.
Over
the
years,
the
Academy
Awards
red
carpet
has
seen
Hollywood’s
biggest
and
brightest
stars—including
Gwyneth
Paltrow,
Zendaya
and
Lady
Gaga—wearing
their
finest
‘fits.
Case
in
point?
Halle
Berry’s
Elie
Saab
dress
at
the
2002
ceremony,
which
she
wore
while
making
history
as
the
first
Black
woman
to
win
the
Best
Actress
Award
for
her
role
in
Monster’s
Ball.
In
fact,
the
moment—and
the
look—was
so
iconic
that
it
essentially
put
the
designer
on
the
map.
Indeed,
the
gown—a
luxurious
red
dress
featured
a
mesh
bodice
with
delicate
floral
embroidering
and
a
classy
silk-taffeta
skirt—was
so
historic
that
the
Catwoman
actress
put
it
on
again
22
years
later
to
celebrate
Elie
Saab’s
1,001st
season
in
Saudi
Arabia.
“There
are
some
moments
in
life
that
just
happen
and
they
change
our
lives
forever!
Winning
an
Academy
Award
in
my
Elie
Saab
gown
was
one
of
those
moments
for
me,”
Halle
wrote
on
Instagram
last
November.
“Thank
you
Mr.
Saab
for
being
a
part
of
the
tapestry
of
my
life
as
we
have
been
inextricably
connected
for
22
years
now!”
