It's basically never news when Halle Berry looks phenomenal because that's literally every moment of every day. It's technically also not news that Halle Berry currently has a bob—she's been sporting it for a while. But she hasn't worn her bob the way she wore it to the 2025 Oscars, and that, my friends, counts as premium beauty news. (Not news, though: she still looks so freakin' great.)
Berry arrived on the Academy Awards red carpet in one of the biggest trends of the night: a sparkling, silvery gown and dazzling Pomellato jewelry. The strapless Christian Siriano dress—which looks like a shattered mirror pieced together to create a sartorial masterpiece—competes with some of Berry's best Oscar getups, as does her beauty look.
Makeup artist Hung Vanngo used Chanel favorites in clever ways to create a Bond-girl-inspired glow. “For a more cohesive makeup look, I added a touch of Chanel Joues Contraste Intense Cream-to-Powder Blush in Grenat Profond onto both the cheeks and the crease of the eyelids.”
We're especially charmed by Berry's bob, which is so flippy that it feels like it's smiling at us. Stylist David Stanwell gave the Oscar winner a deep side part, slicking it down for an almost-wet look. With about an inch left, he flipped it outward and upward for a formal-meets-playful finish. Fun fact: Even though she's not wearing her hair curly, Stanwell styled her hair with Olaplex No.10 Bond Shaper Curl Defining Gel. “This adds a little hold yet still keeps the hair sleek and wet-looking.”
