Halle Berry has publicly approved of Zendaya's Halloween costume, which recreated Berry's memorable outfit from the 2000 premiere of X-Men. The Euphoria star donned a replica of the ensemble, featuring a bikini top and matching low-rise pants, originally worn by Berry on the red carpet.
Berry shared social media posts acknowledging Zendaya's costume, including a TikTok video that lauded the actress for choosing a "fashion icon" for Halloween. Zendaya's stylist, Law Roach, sourced the original Lanvin Fall 2000 outfit for the costume.
This acknowledgement comes as Berry navigates a contentious legal battle with her ex-husband, Olivier Martinez, who has accused her of physically abusing their son, Maceo. Berry has denied these allegations.
Recent court developments saw Martinez awarded primary physical custody of their 13-year-old son, with Berry losing overnight visits. However, a representative for Berry stated she retains joint legal custody and the tie-breaking vote in future disagreements. Martinez had previously sought a temporary restraining order against Berry for himself and their son, though a judge later dissolved it. Berry's attorney expressed satisfaction with the dissolution, stating Berry remains focused on her family's well-being.
Martinez's lawyer indicated that Berry's attempt to restore 50/50 custody was rejected. The court is scheduled to reconsider the custody matter next month. Berry and Martinez were married from 2013 to 2015, with their divorce finalized in 2023.
