Though Eva Mendes has stepped away from acting for now, she continues to turn heads with her timeless beauty—this time on the cover of Elle France.

The actress looked radiant in a pale blue Stella McCartney dress that perfectly captured a breezy, summer vibe. The pleated chiffon gown featured a cinched waist, flowing train, and a high-low hem that showcased her long legs. She wore her brunette hair down in soft waves, with her signature bangs delicately framing her face. See the look here!

“Absolute smokeshow.”

“Ugh, so stunning. Those bangs and hair color look fabulous on her! And the black & white pics…gorgeous!”

“Sophia Loren vibe. She’s so stunning.”

“She’s so gorgeous.”

“She has such a good face.”

“I wish she had done more movies! Anyway, she looks stunning here.”

Although she didn’t sit down for an interview with the publication (leaving fans hoping for a glimpse into her relationship with Ryan Gosling), Eva did give a heartfelt shoutout to the Barbie actor on Instagram last month, celebrating one of his major achievements for the Oscars.

On April 10, the Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the introduction of a new Academy Award category: Achievement in Stunt Design. The new category will debut at the 100th Academy Awards, honoring films released in 2027.

Although the duo are extremely private, she wrote in an Instagram post, “My man is the F best! Unfortunately, success is almost only measured by box office. So I’m extra proud of my man for turning his entire Fall Guy press tour into a campaign to get stunts recognized by the Oscars. And now, after almost 100 years of stunt design not being acknowledged by the Academy, it’s officially a category!! This is a HUGE success! And an achievement that will last. Congratulations to the incredible stunt community!! BTW, this is the last time I post a pic of my man and the total babe that is Emily Blunt. No más!”
