Get the Halle Berry Look: The Elie Tahari Purple Jersey Shirred Dress

This is a great Halle Berry dress because it is the kind of dress she would wear if she wanted to feel comfortable and yet stylish at the same time. The great thing about this dress is that it is designed with a treatment that makes the dress look like it is fancier than a jersey knit.

We have all seen Halle Berry in some timeless pieces and here is one that represents her timeless style. It is not the most inexpensive jersey you will ever see; it will cost you $209.00 on bluefly.com. Well, I guess that is the price to be paid to own a little bit of that Halle Berry timeless style.

The color is called gypsy which is a dark purple color. It is dark enough to not really distinguish right away if it's purple, blue or black when you are looking at it from a distance. Since, it is such a neutral color for all you Halle Berry fans you can rest assured this color will look great on you.

One of the really attractive things about this dress is the shirred bodice. Since this dress is more to the simple side it needed this shirred element to really give something that had and edge while keeping its timeless appeal.

Now let me tell you about the sweet detailing on the hem of this dress. On the hem there is scalloped trimming that is really subtle. Looking at this dress on a picture you would not be able to tell there was anything special on the hem. However, when you see this dress face to face you will have to admit this adds a nice touch to this Halle Berry.

I forgot to mention before, but this dress has a scoop neck that is gathered. It shows quite a bit of chest, but not enough to show cleavage which is a good thing. The length of this dress goes about two inches below the knee. I think that strappy high heels would be the best option for this.

This dress holds a really nice shape and I believe that is because of the lining. Lining always gives a dress better shape. The lining of this dress is satin and that is probably another reason why this dress costs as much as it does. This Halle Berry dress is really all about quality and details!
