Salma Hayek put her curvaceous figure on display to attend a star-studded party with her daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault, on Tuesday, June 23.

The lookalike pair made a rare appearance together at the Serpentine Gallery summer party in London, with Salma, 59, enhancing her curves in a figure-hugging, pale blue dress.

The sleeveless, floor-length gown featured a cowl neckline, satin detailing, and a giant bow on one shoulder.

Valentina, 18, meanwhile, looked stylish in a black co-ord, which consisted of a handkerchief top and a floor-length skirt worn low on her hips.

The mother-daughter duo both accessorized with sunglasses and minimal jewelry, but while Salma wore her raven hair in a high, tight ponytail, Valentina rocked bouncy waves in a deep side-parting.

Salma and her billionaire husband, François-Henri Pinault, 64, welcomed Valentina on September 21, 2007. François-Henri is also a dad to daughter Mathilde, 25, and son Francois, 28, whom he shares with his first wife, Dorothée Lepère, and son, Augustin, 19, whom he welcomed with supermodel Linda Evangelista.

Salma sees her stepchildren as a "blessing," telling Red magazine in 2017: "I always wanted to have a lot of children, and I was not able to. My body, as a miracle, had one.

"The huge blessing I've had is that my husband has three other children. So I have four. And they are all so different."

Salma was 41 when she welcomed her daughter and has stated she thinks she was a better mom because she was older.

"I feel that I've done enough things in life where I can appreciate the time I spend with her as my No. one priority and not feel I'm missing out on something," she previously told The Guardian.

"I feel I'm a lot more patient. I wouldn't trade this for anything in the world," she added.

Valentina celebrated her 18th birthday last September, and her mom has previously opened up about her only child flying the nest. 

"When you're a Mexican Lebanese mother, it's a very difficult thought because we like them close," she told People.

"But I've been talking about it with my husband for a very long time. I devoted myself to my family for 18 years, but we both know that once this happens, I'm going to devote myself to my community, to my craft. And he's very excited for me to really try to go and explore what my greatest potentials are."

Valentina looks just like her mother

Valentina intends to follow in her mom's footsteps in Hollywood. "She's going her own way," Salma told Today. "She wants to study political science and then, as a minor, film because she wants to be a director. 

"But she doesn't want to study to be a director. She said, 'It's in my blood. I want to spend the time learning something more complicated.'"
