Halle Berry's Cannes Outfit Altered Due to New Red Carpet Rules
At the Cannes Film Festival, there are new rules about what people can wear on the red carpet.
The rules say no dresses that show too much skin or have very long trains.
Halle Berry, who is on the jury, had a beautiful dress made by Gaurav Gupta, but the train was too big.
Because of the new rules, she couldn't wear it.
She ended up wearing a different dress for the opening night.
She stated the nudity rule was probably a good rule.
Halle Berry had to change her outfit for the Cannes Film Festival opening.
The change was due to new rules regarding dress code at the event.
The new rules prohibit nudity and voluminous outfits, especially those with long trains.
Berry's original dress, designed by Gaurav Gupta, was not compliant due to its train length.
Berry wore a dress by Jacquemus instead, following the updated guidelines.
