Actress Salma Hayek barely avoided a wardrobe malfunction when she stepped out of a pool in a soaking wet black strapless dress for a photo shoot Wednesday.

The 48-year-old star was snapped clutching on to her dress as she came out of the pool. The weight of her drenched dress proved to be a bit challenging to keep up and cover her, reports eonline.com.

While the purpose behind the sexy photo shoot remains unknown, the actress successfully steered clear from accidentally flashing her body to everyone around her.
