For the event, the Eternals star wore a one-shoulder sleeveless black dress from Atelier Versace’s Fashion Week 1997. The dress featured a puffed leather detail that covered the one strap. As the dress came down to her feet, it also had a risky slit that went up to her left thigh, putting her toned legs on display.
The outfit covered her assets perfectly and magically hugged her curves. Along with it, Salma Hayek added a faux leather cape that she held in her hands.
Salma’s styling game was indeed on point as she added matching strappy heels. The Frida star added a sparkly silver clutch to her look. She ditched heavy accessories; Salma Hayek wore a sleek silver bracelet and studded earrings and kept her alluring look minimalistic.
As for the makeup, Salma opted for a nude base which complimented her look. She was seen wearing a maroon lipstick that matched her toenail colour. The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard star tied her brunette hair in a tight neat bun.
