Kate Beckinsale’s Dress Is Giving People Major Ball Vibes The Underworld bombshell turned heads Thursday (Oct. 24) at the red carpet event for Variety’s Power of Women. Although some hailed her as weaving in the much-beloved “ballet core” aesthetic, others tagged with comments about looking like, um, balls.

Christian Siriano designed the strapless formal gown to bunch and puff at the sides and back in a “puffball” style while leaving the front open.

People can’t stop comparing Kate Beckinsale’s dress to testicles
Anyway, Christian’s post ended up being a catalyst for some totally random comparisons between him and the other commenter said “I love you both but he just gives ovaries to me”
One user commented: “That is a scrotum dress and I’m waiting on the wind to blow it up.”
Another person wrote: “That is balls. BALLS.”
Another person added: “This dress puts ball in ballerina”
Looking at those killer heels, another onlooker said: ”I just broke both my ankles”. It news.co.au
These four industry icons were among the approximately 3,000 honorees who came together for one of entertainment’s most influential gatherings, the Variety Power of Women 2024 event (the other being Variety Power of Women New York) to showcase their philanthropic projects.

To celebrate the 15th anniversary of his brand, Christian Siriano took a dramatic approach to presenting his spring 2024 collection. According to a report Friday (Oct. 25) in Women’s Wear Daily (WWD), the designer pulled ballet from the past for this milestone.
The designer once told WWD: “It is how I was introduced to clothes, and fantasy dream world.
According to WWD, balletcore was one of 2023’s top trends spilling over into early 2024, and first took the TikTok spotlight in 2022.
While others struggled to identify the 51-year-old Brit, some claiming she had shed too many pounds.
And one netizen on TikTok reposted a video of a classic winter scene from the film Serendipity, writing: “Kate Beckinsale looked like pure magic in the movie Serendipity.” “I don’t recognize her here.”
She was commended for adopting the “ballet core” trend

One commentator added, “Late to this but I gasped when I knew it was Kate Beckinsale.” She looks unrecognizable. I hope she’s well.”
One TikTok user commented: “Kate Beckinsale, looks like that little tiny ballerina you spun when you’d open your jewelry box as a kid.”
Kate has also aimed at comments about her body in the past. She previously attributed the loss to stress from her terminally ill stepfather and ‘other personal losses’.
She then added that she had been hospitalized with a stress-induced tear “where the stomach meets the esophagus” along with an exacerbation of her mast cell disease.
“Actually that’s a lie, I have mast cell activation syndrome which is a huge daily battle and means I react to hundreds of things poorly,” Kate replied to fans on her Instagram page last year who accused her of undergoing several unnecessary cosmetic-aesthetic treatments.
Mast cells are the allergy cells that are responsible for all those immediate allergic reactions (MCAS), the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology explains.
