Salma Hayek channeled her inner Brigitte Bardot in an off-duty style moment from the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.

The Eternals actress shared behind-the-scenes photos from her time in the French Riviera on May 24.

Hayek stunned as she paired a draped periwinkle blue gown with a matching accessory in one image.

Salma Hayek proved her off-duty French Riviera outfits were just as show-stopping as the high-octane gowns and jewelry on parade at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival red carpet in a photo dump posted on Sunday. The Frida actress shared some of her behind-the-scenes highlights from this year’s award show, including serving up major ‘60s French girl glamour in a draped blue gown paired with a coquette accessory.

In the May 24 carousel, Hayek took style cues from Brigitte Bardot as she posed against the backdrop of the Côte d’Azur. The 59 year old, who appeared to be on an upper level of a superyacht, made an asymmetrical style statement in a periwinkle blue bodycon gown that featured a single elbow-length sleeve with frills trimming the hem on her right side.

Meanwhile, the top of Hayek’s left arm was covered in a sheer gauze material that extended from a draped accent on her waist and extended across her chest, covering both of her shoulders. The Desperado actress’s full skirt featured ruching along her midriff and a pleated detail, giving the form-fitting number a sculptural quality.

In true French Riviera screen siren form, Hayek added a wide matching blue headband, covering her dark brown hair and framing her diamond stud earrings. A deep mauve lipstick and smoky eyeshadow finished off her look.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit star also gave her followers a glimpse of her and husband François-Henri Pinault’s luxurious yacht. Hayek playfully posed with a white cat in her arms, showing off a glimpse of the light wood-paneled cabin and deck behind her.

She pulled her dark hair back into a sleek bun, showing off a glimpse of several silver strands around her hairline. Hayek appeared to wear another design from the same brand, stunning in a dark brown one-shoulder jumpsuit with a single elbow-length sleeve and similar draping across her midriff and down her pants leg.
