Halle Bailey graced the city of lights last week for the Paris Fashion Week, catching up with other melanin queens in the game but her latest photos are raising brows. Celebrities trooped to Paris in their numbers last week to witness various designers present their Fall/Winter collections via iconic fashion shows while expressing their own uniqueness through the most amazing outfits. Halle and her sister Chloe Bailey joined the hoard of celebs and fashion enthusiasts at the semi-annual fashion showcase.
The Grown-ish star took to Instagram to share a photodump of her time in Paris, captioning it, “Paris here I am 🥰🇫🇷♥️what a beautiful show @louboutinworld.”
Halle Bailey Pictured in a Little Black Dress
For the photo shoot, the 24-year-old rocked a black mini dress with a cutout detail in her chest area revealing her busty cleavage and midriffs. She paired the dress with a black handle purse and matching pumps by Louboutin World. In the first photo, Halle Bailey posed at the bottom of a staircase, leaning slightly on the handrail. She followed with a closer shot of herself, revealing more intricate details of her face, hairline, and manicured nails.
Halle struck a playful pose in her next snap, holding up her purse in a cheeky manner. The next pic from her Paris Fashion Week Louboutin SS25 show featured Halle Bailey squatting beside a wall, her pulled-up dress calling attention to her thighs. The singer also posed with other famous female singers at the show, including sister Chloe Bailey who stunned in a wine-colored sequined gown.
One snap from the Paris collection featured Halle and Chloe Bailey posing alongside Nigerian singer Ayra Starr and English crooner Leigh–Anne Pinnock, each rocking their expressive outfits. The sisters also got a snap with South Korean singer Boo Seungkwan, sending fans into a frenzy as they hopped into the comment section to express their disbelief and excitement.
Fans Spot Different Skin Tones in Halle’s Parisian Snaps
While Halle Bailey’s Paris photo dump earned her accolades from impressed fans, some keen-eyed fans were quick to point out an apparent flop in the pics. They drew attention to the In Your Hands crooner’s exposed skin, which seemed to have different tones, her darker thighs being the most obvious. One alarmed fan commented,
“Why she got two skin tones?”
Another suggested the different skin tone was a telling sign of a Photoshop fail, saying,
“You should have taken out time to edit ur legs🦵 too.”
A third fan pointed out that the darker hue was the star’s “real color,” going by the photos. Another fan attempted to explain the possible reason behind the different skin tones, noting it had to do with the tan applied on her skin during the makeover session, contrary to the implied editing mishap. The fan shared,
“She needs a tan up top. They rubbed tanner on her legs but not her top half.”
Some of the commenters suggested the lighting was the major culprit behind the different shades. However, that theory seemed unlikely given the multiple skin shades were only noticeable in Halle’s snaps, and not the others in the photoshoot. Some fans stood up in her defense, noting that having different skin tones was normal for everyone. Sharing the photos on the gram regardless of the seeming imperfections only goes to prove how real the star was, a rare trait in a world with distorted celebrity beauty standards. Multiple skin tones or not, Halle Bailey’s beauty and charm can’t be disputed, even beyond Paris.
