The then-50-year-old Mexican-American film actress, producer, and former model donned a custom Gucci dress featuring a rose velvet ribbon belt and floral details.

She styled the one-shouldered gown with colorful Irene Neuwirth earrings and a yellow crystal-embellished satin clutch from the same Italian luxury brand founded in Florence in 1921.

At the same 2017 SAG Awards, Nicole Kidman also wore a stunning Gucci creation, showcasing the brand’s bold and whimsical side. She turned heads in a dazzling green gown adorned with sequined parrots on the shoulders, adding an exotic touch to her red carpet look.

Salma Hayek’s choice of Gucci for the 2017 SAG Awards was not just a fashion statement but also a nod to her connection with the brand. As the wife of François-Henri Pinault, the CEO of Kering—the luxury group that owns Gucci—Hayek often champions the brands under Kering’s umbrella.

Though her shoes were hidden beneath the flowing hem of her gown, Salma Hayek is frequently seen in platform heels, a style that complements her petite stature. Known for embracing high heels to enhance her height, Salma often opts for platforms that add both elegance and a bit of extra lift on the red carpet.

For instance, during a 2017 appearance on “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah,” she wore Gucci T-strap platform pumps featuring almond toes, cage-like fronts, and beetle accents adorned with enamel and crystals. These black satin shoes also boasted metallic silver leather details, crystal-encrusted buckles, and block heels set on extended red platforms.
