Salma Hayek wanted to cover up at the 75th British Academy Awards (BAFTAs) on Sunday, but the wind had other plans for her. On Monday, the House of Gucci star shared a photo collage on the red carpet where a gust of wind lifted her gown, revealing her toned, flawless legs. While some wardrobe malfunctions can be terrifying, Hayek laughed it off. “Sometimes in an effort to cover something other things show up more,” the hilarious actress wrote.

Hayek’s high-slit velvet custom Gucci gown was a showstopper at the awards. The lace trim added a sexy Gothic vibe and the 55-year-old looked stunning wih a high bun.

Considering the Frida star’s husband, François-Henri Pinault is the CEO of Kering which is the owner of Gucci, it makes sense why she had the perfect, custom, dress.

Following the awards, Hayek and Pinault headed to Scott’s restaurant in Mayfair, London. The celebrity hot spot is known for its seafood and champagne but it looked like the only snack he was interested in was standing next to him. The 59-year-old looked happy to stand with his wife as he held her close with his hand around his waist with a big smile.

The Mexican-American dazzled in the same velvet dress and the CEO looked Sharp in a marine tuxedo with black trim.

The BAFTAs honor the best national and foreign films and are presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts. This year’s awards were hosted by Rebel Wilson and actors like Will Smith (Best Actor), Joanna Scanlan (Best Actress), Troy Kotsur (Best Supporting Actor), and Ariana DeBose, (Best Supporting Actress) were honored.
