Hayek: The Oscars’ Best-Dressed Latina By a Neck

In a night that saw few Latina luminaries on the red carpet at this year’s Academy Awards, Salma Hayek managed to represent the entire community in fine fashion…

The 46-year-old Mexican actress, who served as a presenter at this year’s Oscars, even stood a neck above a majority of Hollywood’s starlets with her golden collar.

Here’s a look at the night’s best-dressed Latinas:
