Brian Singer tweeted a picture of Halle Berry in her new Storm outfit for Days of Future Past.
I have to say… not a big fan.

The cape is one of Storm’s most iconic pieces of wardrobe and this… it’s just horrid. Maybe if they got the cape from the previous movies and put it with this outfit that would be a lot better?
