It may come as no surprise to you that Halle Berry and Sweaty Betty have teaming up to create a second capsule collection. Halle Berry’s body is a hot topic; any time the actress posts a bikini pic on Instagram, the internet soon lights up with hundreds of admiring news pieces.
Maybe it’s because, like J-Lo, the 54-year-old is defying the idea that the 'body beautiful' is all about youth. Perhaps it’s because she was one of the first to hop on the fitness hype, during a time when the world fetishised ‘skinny’ bodies over strong ones. Or maybe it’s because Berry doesn’t just post bikini pics but hardcore, sweaty videos of her boxing training (admittedly, on the beach) or suspended upside down from a punchbag, casually racking up the crunches. Either way, all we know is that it's a match made in heaven: Sweaty Betty and Halle Berry, via her wellness platform Re.Spin.

Following the success of the first collection which launched in May and had pieces selling out within 24 hours, the second collection - out now - features the perfect pieces for autumn, with layers in a colour palette of soft greens, creams and blacks inspired by Berry's love of nature.

The collection also includes Sweaty Betty’s newest legging franchise, the Super Soft, which is perfect for gym lovers as it's sweat-wicking, it perfectly sculpts the derrière and it's high compression.
The ex-Bond Girl and X Men star obviously looks nothing short of fierce in the campaign images, which denote strength rather than sex appeal (although, naturally, she's got plenty of that too).
You can really see where Berry’s penchant for martial arts (see her 2021 film Bruised, or those famous Insta videos, for examples of her kick-ass moves) comes into play here.
The collection officially is live on Sweaty Betty's website now.
