Eva Mendes Celebrates 51st Birthday with Stunning New Stella McCartney Campaign
Actor Eva Mendes marked her 51st birthday with the release of a new Stella McCartney campaign, looking as radiant as ever. The photos feature Mendes in a breathtaking sheer maxi dress from McCartney’s Summer 2025 collection.
The $3,600 gown features a single cape sleeve, a high-slit skirt, and elegant wrapped and knotted details, accented with delicate chain-like embellishments. Mendes paired the dress with black ankle-strap heels and styled her hair in a deep side part.
Mendes shared the campaign photo on Instagram with a heartfelt caption expressing gratitude for her life and her collaboration with McCartney. “My new campaign and my new age just dropped!”
she wrote. She praised McCartney for creating “the most beautiful, cruelty-free clothing,” adding, “I’ve worked with amazing designers throughout my career, but I’ve never felt sexier in anyone else’s designs than hers.”
The actor also shared that while she couldn’t attend McCartney’s fashion show, she was spending her birthday with her family.
Fans filled the comments section with birthday wishes and compliments on Mendes’ age-defying beauty. “51 never looked so good,” one fan wrote, while others echoed the sentiment, expressing admiration for her stunning appearance.
On the topic of a potential return to acting, Mendes has previously stated in interviews that she “was never in love with acting,” and felt she “wasn’t a great actress,” though she acknowledged having “moments when [she] worked with really great people.” She also revealed the challenges she faced early in her career due to being perceived as “too ethnic” for certain roles. However, Mendes hinted at a possible comeback, stating that she would be interested in a project with longtime partner Ryan Gosling, noting that he “gets something out of [her] that’s never been accessible before.”
