The mother of two stunned in a sheer maxi dress ($3,600) from Stella McCartney’s Summer 2025 collection, featuring a single cape sleeve, a high-slit skirt, and elegant wrapped and knotted details.

The actress took to her Instagram to share the photo with her fans and also wrote a heartfelt caption: "My new campaign and my new age just dropped! I’m 51 today and so grateful for all the reasons. Especially grateful to @stellamccartney for making the most beautiful, cruelty-free clothing that I feel so great in. I’ve worked with amazing designers throughout my career, but I’ve never felt sexier in anyone else’s designs than hers. I hate that I can’t be there at your fashion show today, but I have the best reason in the world—I’m with my family. Sending out loads of love today and every day."
Her fans flocked to her comment section to praise Mendes for her age-defying beauty and to wish her a happy birthday:
"51 never looked so good."
"Happy birthday, Eva! You look better at 51 than I've looked at any age. Absolutely stunning."
"I wish I looked like this when I was 51."
"Still the prettiest lady of all time. Not even a question."
Eva Mendes Reveals Whether She Will Return to Acting
The question everyone asks when it comes to Eva is: will she ever return to acting?
In an interview with The Times on Oct. 2024, she admitted, “I was never in love with acting. I don’t mean this in a self-deprecating way, but I wasn’t a great actress. I had my moments when I worked with really great people.”
Although she played some iconic characters, it wasn’t always easy, as she revealed, “That’s all they would say at the beginning—’She’s too ethnic for this, too ethnic for that.’ It was so crazy. That was the constant note.”
However, she did give us a glimmer of hope, noting that she’ll possibly make a comeback if it’s with the love of her life, Ryan Gosling. “That’s the one thing I would love to do. He gets something out of me that’s never been accessible before.”
