She's married to a French businessman and spends her majority of her time in Paris.
And Salma Hayek proved she has well and truly mastered the art of Parisian chic as she attended an Yves Saint Laurent event in the fashion capital on Thursday night.
Joining her billionaire husband François-Henri Pinault at the launch of the iconic label's new collaboration with Jalil Lespert at UGC Normandie, the 47-year-old actress positively oozed French glamour as she displayed her tiny waist in a classically stylish black pencil dress.
Hugging her envy-inducing hourglass curves to perfection, the effortless LBD featured a flattering leather panel at the waist, and offered a new take on the classic garment with a glitter-detail top and a ruched high-neck.
The screen siren teamed her chic dress with an immaculately tailored cropped blazer, while adding a touch of feminine charm in sexy fishnet stockings and stiletto heels.
Salma completed her stylish enemble by toting a tiny black and gold box bag with a chain strap, while accessorising with statement rings and large diamond earrings.
The Mexican beauty wore her raven locks swept back off her face into a chic chignon, while injecting a welcome pop of colour to her all-black outfit with the addition of a slick of pillar box red lipstick.
And Salma certainly wasn't let down in the sartorial stakes by her businessman husband, with Pinault - who owns the likes of Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent - looking dapper in a navy blue blazer, indigo jeans and a grey scarf.
The couple's appearance comes after it was claimed they are hunting for a new home in London, sparking suggestions they are set to join 'l'exodus' of wealthy French to countries with lower taxes.
The Hollywood star and her French beau are said to be scouring upmarket Belgravia, Kensington and Notting Hill for a family home after a number of French tycoons have indicated they are preparing to leave following a crackdown on high earners by Socialist president François Hollande.
Salma was seen leaving a Claridge's hotel in Mayfair with a leading property agent last Thursday, according to The Sunday Times.
Kering, Pinault's company, confirmed to the paper that the couple, who have one daughter Valentina, intended to rent a house in London 'for personal reasons'.
The company insisted Pinault would remain a tax-paying French citizen, telling The Sunday Times: 'Kering is a Euronext Paris-listed group with global operations.
'Its registered headquarters is in Paris and the group plans to move into a new headquarters building in Paris in 2015.'
Pinault was introduced to the actress by a former Gucci executive and the pair married in Paris on Valentine's Day 2009, 18 months after their daughter was born.
The billionaire businessman already had two children by his first wife and a third by Canadian supermodel Linda Evangelista.
He took over the running of his father's business empire, then called PPR, ten years ago. His family also own the auction house Christie's, Chateau Latour, a vineyard in Bordeaux, and French football club Stade Rennais.
He told the Evening Standard in March: 'London is hot. For now, all the new designers are coming from London. This could be a weakness for France, as I do not see the same depth of new talent here in Paris.'
