Salma Hayek Dresses to Impress Her Husband

Actress Salma Hayek says she likes to dress to impress her French husband François-Henri Pinault. Salma admits that many men don’t notice when their wife dresses up for them, but Francois always does and she says he often inspires her:

”If you’re in love with someone, you always want to conquer them anew. Even if we don’t go out, I like to look nice for him. He inspires me. There are men who don’t notice what you’re wearing, and that’s cool. But when you make an effort, Francois appreciates it so much.”

Salma now lives in Paris and is often overwhelmed by everyone’s style. On the streets the local people are very well dressed and no one wears trainers even though most people walk everywhere. Salma comments on what Paris living is like:

”It’s nuts, how good the people look. Nobody’s overweight, everybody’s well dressed, no tennis shoes – somehow, even though they walk all over the place, everyone manages to wear real shoes, nice shoes.”

Salma also reveals that her husband prefers her to look natural and doesn’t like when she changes her real hair. She feels that after having her hair natural for so long, she thinks it’s time for a change, but realizes her husband probably knows what’s best:

”My husband, it’s funny, but he hates it when I have this Parisian hair! He loves my crazy-maniac-madwoman just-got-out-of-the-shower hair. He is like the lawyer for my thick, wild, natural hair. He’s like, ‘Why make it suffer?’ But you know for 45 years I’ve got this big hair, and these big boobs, and I’m this tiny person and sometimes – you just want to be … smaller. He’s probably right – my mom always said, ‘You think you know better than God?”’
