Hollywood legend Salma Hayek has been enjoying some time in Italy and looked incredible while walking the ruined streets of Pompeii in a plunging dress with no bra

Salma Hayek had fans on their knees as she ditched her bra in a plunging gown while holidaying in Italy.

The 57-year-old brunette bombshell reflected on the deep experience she had in the ruined city of Pompeii, snapping a variety of stunning selfies as she did so. In the first snap uploaded to Instagram, Salma closed her eyes and tilted her head away from the camera.

She wore a plunging black gown made of velvet, with dusky pink lace straps rising up over her shoulders. Going braless underneath, the stunning dress left swathes of toned skin on display as she arranged her dark tresses in a half-up, half-down ‘do.

Salma upped the ante with her make-up look, swiping on a metallic pink shade to match the straps of her gown and a matching pink pout, with just a hint of dark liner over her lids. In another snap, she let her hair down in wild waves as she explored the streets.

Reflecting on her experience, Salma penned in the caption: “I feel an undeniable connection to the world that existed centuries ago. When you walk through the ruins of Pompeii you can’t help but imagine the lives of the people and their spirit linger in the air.

“The endurance of its buildings have survived to tell stories of our triumph and tragedy, of love and loss, all frozen in time. Thank you @massimo_osanna for this extraordinary experience.”

Someone else agreed: “What a beautiful woman.” While a third social media user said: “You are the most stunning woman!” Another fan echoed: “Baddie as always!”

Salma has previously spilled some of the secrets that help her stay looking ageless – including “never washing her face in the morning”. She explained: “It’s not disgusting guys. What happens at night is your skin produces all the oils that your skin needs to look youthful. It regenerates. So, wash your skin really great at night but don’t wash the hard work off your skin in the morning.”

She doesn’t use Botox to keep her complexion smooth, instead relying on meditation and frequency machines. She admitted on Kelly Ripa’s SiriusXM podcast: “No Botox. I do a lot of the frequency machines and they work on me better than on anyone.

“And just the meditation… sometimes when I’m doing it, people tell me when I come out of the room, ‘Oh my God, you look 20 years old.’”

She added: “When I don’t meditate for some time, guess what? Not only [does] the face start to drop and everything starts to drop, but my herniated disc, the problem in my neck, the problem in my hip, my ankles [comes back]. I start breaking down.”
