During the French Open Tennis Championship (Roland Garros 2026), held in Paris, the international star, Salma Hayek, caught the attention with an elegant look while sitting in the stands during the eighth day of the tournament.

Her appearance came while she was watching the matches with her husband, businessman François-Henri Pinault, in a calm atmosphere inside the “Roland Garros” stadium. She adopted a predominantly black look with limited color details, adding a clear balance to the look.

Touches of the upscale street…and the “nostalgia” of the millennium:

Salma Hayek wore a shirt without a sleeve from the house “Gucci”, distinguished by two green and red stripes around the neck opening, a design that reflects the house’s classic identity. Over the shirt, she coordinated a light black jacket tied in the front, which gave the look a spontaneous character, leaning toward elegant street style, especially when coordinated with black leather “shorts” that reached the knee, which is one of the pieces that has made a strong return to the world of fashion.

As for shoes, she chose a flat leather sandal from Bottega Veneta, with a practical design and wide straps, which added a comfortable and simple touch, in keeping with the atmosphere of long sporting events without abandoning the luxurious character.

Regarding accessories, she carried a small red handbag from the “house” itself, to form a striking color contrast with the black look. She also wore “cat-eye” sunglasses from the house of “Alexander McQueen,” which came with red details on the edges, which added an elegant, modern touch.

But the most distinctive piece in her look was the black “Newsboy” hat, which is a fashion trend that became famous in the early second millennium, then gradually disappeared before returning to the forefront again in fashion shows and “street style.” This choice gave the look a clear nostalgic character, and revived a style that was associated with informal fashion in that period.
