Basic instinct

Because of the poor pay, Sharon Stone negotiated to keep her wardrobe from Basic Instinct which included a cream Hèrmes cape and that tiny high-neck custom dress.

In an exclusive excerpt from her memoir, Stone writes about predatory directors, being a “difficult” woman in Hollywood, and her most iconic role: “It’s about more than just a peek up my skirt, people.”

She kept all the clothes from the thriller because she wasn't paid much - $500K does not seem like a small amount but it was when compared to her costar Michael Douglas' $14million.
