In celebration of Dandridge’s 100th birthday, which also marks 23 years since starring in the film, Berry reminisced with polaroid images from her clothing fittings for the movie, including pieces that actually belonged to Dandridge herself. The collection of photos—dubbed “The Dottie Body”—feature a young Berry wearing clothes given to her by Dandridge’s manager, Earl Mills, including lingerie sets, hats, headpieces and more. The Moonfall star, now 56, shared the photos to Twitter on Thursday, including one racy shot of her wearing a red two-piece lace lingerie set and showing off her toned figure. Another highlighted image shows Berry in a beauty shot, with her curly hair down to her chin, much like Dandridge’s. “This #tbt I share with you what we affectionately called “The Dottie Body,” Berry wrote alongside her post. “Every piece of Dorothy Dandridge’s clothing given to me by her manager Earl Mills fit me perfectly! Here’s some of my polaroid collection of fittings & shoot days! If you love Dottie like I do, enjoy!” Berry then followed up the post with another photo, this time honing in on a pic of herself donning a beige lace lingerie set, featuring a lace bra and high-leg thong bottoms. “Well damn!” one user wrote in response to Berry’s tweet, while another person called Berry a “goddess” in the Catwoman alum’s jaw-dropping snap. “Hottie then, and you still have it babe!!” someone else wrote. One day prior, Berry shared another tweet to wish Dandridge a happy birthday on Nov. 9, which would have marked the late actress’ 100th birthday. “23 years ago I was privileged to bring the life of Dorothy Dandridge to the screen and 100 years ago today this legendary magical creature was born!” Berry wrote alongside a photo of a young Dandridge side by side with a snap of herself in costume for the biopic. She also added the message, “Happy birthday Dottie,” at the end of her tweet. More News:
