Salma Hayek’s magical red carpet closet
Salma Hayek’s iconic red gown from the 1997 Oscars made a comeback on the red carpet of the 2023 Oscars, this time worn by her daughter Valentina Pinault. The actress had originally worn the stunning red dress 26 years ago, and it has since become one of the most memorable outfits in Oscar’s history.
Valentina Pinault, who is now 15 years old, made her red carpet debut in the dress at the 95th Academy Awards ceremony. The teenager looked stunning in the vintage gown, which featured a fitted bodice, a plunging neckline, and a dramatic train. Valentina styled her hair in loose waves and completed the look with minimal jewelry and natural makeup.
Salma Hayek, who was in attendance at the 2023 Oscars with her daughter, took to social media to express her excitement about the dress making a comeback. The actress shared a series of photos of
herself wearing the dress at the 1997 Oscars alongside a photo of Valentina wearing the same gown. She captioned the post, “Proud of my daughter Valentina for continuing the legacy of my red dress. It was an
honor to wear it then, and it’s an honor to see it worn again so beautifully now.”
Hayek’s original red gown was designed by the legendary designer, Giorgio Armani, and has since become one of the most iconic dresses in Oscars history. The actress had worn the dress to present the award for Best Sound at the 69th Academy Awards ceremony. The dress had caused quite a stir at the time, with many praising Hayek’s stunning appearance and the dress’s timeless elegance.
Valentina Pinault’s debut on the Oscars red carpet in her mother’s vintage gown has already become one of the highlights of the 2023 Oscars ceremony. The young teenager looked every bit as stunning as her mother did 26 years ago, proving that the iconic dress is truly timeless and will continue to make an impact for years to come.
