So Nostalgic
An OG wearer of the divisive trend.
One of those select few was Halle Berry.
At the turn of the millennium,exposing ones thongwas already gaining popularity.
But in the late 90s, celebs were mostly flaunting the slinky underpinnings beneath see-through dresses.
It wasnt until the year 2000 that the whale tail would gain notoriety.
To walk the red carpet, the actor showed up in a decidedly saucy number.
She slipped into a fully-beaded bra and wore it as a top.
The halter-style item featured a geometric pattern in varying hues of pink, red, and white.
The backless piece also featured a fringe of beads that swayed with every move.
Even spicier was her choice of bottoms: Berry donned a matching mini skirt boasting the same triangular pattern.
Pulled up to her waist were two skinny satin straps the whale tail fashion girlies know and love.
Meanwhile, she laced her feet into strappy heels bearing the same baby pink satin fabric.
The whale tail has never looked so good.
