Salma Hayek brought florals to the summer celebration event promoted by Gucci and Miley Cyrus at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles on Thursday. The actress wore a body-con midi dress with a floral print panel on the front that connected with a black satin fabric, creating an optical illusion of an extremely cinched waist.
The trompe l’oeil style creates the visual effect that tricks the viewer’s perception by use of patterns, prints and structural elements to create illusions of shape, depth and movement. The look became popular in the early 20th century with Elsa Schiaparelli, Iris van Herpen, Balmain and Loewe have all embraced the concept in recent collections.
Hayek’s outfit was completed with her signature platform shoes and a diamond necklace.
