Perfect 50! Julia Roberts, 55, and Salma Hayek, 57, appear ageless while showing off their stunning style

Age is just a number for Salma Hayek and Julia Roberts. The 57-year-old and 55-year-old actresses looked stunning while attending the Gala in the Garden event at the Hammer Museum in LA on Saturday. Defying expectations placed on women over 50 in Hollywood, Salma and Julia proved their star power is as vibrant as ever.

Julia dazzled in a black lace mini dress with vibrant orange and teal accents. She paired the sultry number with a menswear-inspired blazer, black pumps and orange earrings. With her highlighted hair in an updo, Julia epitomized glamour and boldness.

Nearly 25 years after first co-starring in My Best Friend’s Wedding, Julia and Salma’s lasting star power and friendship serve as an inspiration. Their glamorous reunion at the Hammer Gala was a defiant statement: youth and physical perfection do not solely determine an actress’s worth or viability.

With poise, confidence and joie de vivre, Salma and Julia demonstrated that talent and charisma know no bounds—especially not the tyranny of age. Vibrant, stunning and fiercely dedicated to their craft, Salma and Julia show no signs of slowing down. For these ageless beauties, the future remains bright.
