Salma Hayek radiates old Hollywood glamour in plunging Gucci gown as she stars ... trends now

Salma Hayek dripped with old Hollywood glamour in a plunging Gucci gown as she starred on her latest magazine cover.

The 57-year-old, who grew up in Mexico but is half-Lebanese on her father's side, has fronted the latest issue of Vogue Arabia.

She shot three different cover images for the publication, once again proving her status as a high-octane style icon and international bombshell. 

In one of the snaps, she teamed her busty Gucci frock with a dazzling Boucheron diamond necklace, as well as an extravagant ring from the same brand.

Her sumptuous mane of jet-black hair was blown back, billowing dramatically as the Frida star shot the camera a beguiling stare. 

In another one of her cover images, Salma showed off her hourglass figure in a clinging Balenciaga gown covered in scarlet sequins.

She also served up a generous helping of cleavage in a strapless black leather dress that was splashed with a massive rose design.

Inside the magazine, she was interviewed by her longtime gal pal Penelope Cruz, whom she co-starred with in the 2006 comedy western Bandidas. 

The pair candidly revealed how they have preserved their close bond - despite sometimes being up for the same roles.

'We never lie to each other,' said Salma. 'When it came to work, we always told each other what we were doing. And we said: "OK, we want to get this movie, but if I’m not going to get it, I hope you do."'

Their generosity to each other 'allowed us to navigate the hypocrisy and fakeness of Hollywood. There were some projects that you wanted more than me and I wanted other ones more than you. We were able to negotiate it.'
