Halle Berry re-wore her iconic Oscars dress for a surprise appearance at an Elie Saab fashion show.

The Catwoman actress cemented her status as a fashion icon when she accepted the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Monster's Ball at the 2002 Academy Awards while wearing a dark red gown with mesh and embroidery created by Saab.

And on Wednesday night, Berry stunned fans by wearing the very same dress to walk the runway at the 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab event staged in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to celebrate the Lebanese designer's 45-year-long career.

Alongside a video showing her striding across the stage, the 58-year-old posted a heartfelt message in which she thanked Saab for his ongoing support.

"There are some moments in life that just happen and they change our lives forever! Winning an Academy Award in my @eliesaabworld gown was one of those moments for me!" she wrote. "Thank you Mr. Saab for being a part of the tapestry of my life as we have been inextricably connected for 22 years now! It was my honor to celebrate you and your 1001 Seasons. Here's wishing you many more glorious years of joy, creativity and glamour!"

In addition to Saab's latest fashion collection, the spectacle also featured performances from Camila Cabello, Jennifer Lopez, and Céline Dion.

Donning a glittering pink minidress, Cabello sang her tracks Never Be the Same, Havana, Shameless, and Señorita for the crowd, while J. Lo performed Let's Get Loud, On the Floor, and Una Noche Más in a dazzling silver bodysuit.

Meanwhile, Dion - who wore a silver dress and matching cape - concluded the show with renditions of The Power of Love and I'm Alive.

Previously, Berry's Oscars dress was featured in an exhibition held at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles.
