Salma completed the look with red platform heels and wore her hair in a braid, adorned with red flowers, walking with her husband François-Henri Pinault.
Fans of the actress shared their excitement on social media, as she is one of the only stars who decided to wear a red ensemble to the Met Gala. “Salma Hayek is THE woman always,” one person wrote, while someone else commented, “I just gasped Salma Hayek looks stunning.”

“Karl confessed that despite that I looked super beautiful, I should stick with my Latin style that suited me better, because otherwise I would leave all the Germans without a wife,” she explained.
