Jessica Alba is the epitome of elegance in a semi-sheer floral gown as she graces the red carpet at the Discobolo Awards in Rome

Jessica Alba was the epitome of elegance as she attended the Discobolo Awards in Rome, Italy on Saturday evening.

The American actress, 43, looked sensational in a gorgeous floral gown as she graced the swanky red carpet. 

Jessica's look boasted a sheer overlay with perfectly placed embellishments and a black velvet bow to cinch her tiny waist. 

The stunner accentuated her dainty features with glamorous make-up, styled her brunette locks into loose curls and toted a leather handbag. 

Jessica forwent a necklace and let the outfit speak for itself opting instead for pair of dazzling diamond earrings. 

The event, which celebrates Italian excellence in cinema, honoured Jessica and her co-stars of new movie Maserati, including Anthony Hopkins and Andy Garcia.

The film 'chronicles the Maserati family's journey, from its founding in 1914 to becoming a renowned Italian luxury car manufacturer, alongside rivals Ferrari and Lamborghini,' according to IMDb. Oscar winner Bobby Moresco directs.

In a statement obtained by Deadline, Andrea said of the project: 'Working with such an extraordinary cast and filming in an iconic place like Cinecittà is the perfect way to honor the legacy of the Maserati family. Additionally, with Tuscany Film Studio’s VR technology, we’re creating an innovative cinematic experience deeply rooted in Italian heritage.'

Production on the project began last month, with filming set to occur at Rome's Cinecittà studios in addition to locales Modena and Bologna, according to Deadline. 

Jessica is heading right back to work after enjoying a getaway to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico with her husband Cash Warren and their children Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and son Hayes, six. 

She shared snaps from their trip to her Instagram on Monday, which featured plenty of fun beach photos, along with a picture of Jessica and her daughters posing with Cash serving as photographer.

'Mexico with my mains,' she captioned the post.  

In June, Jessica revealed if her children decided to pursue a career in showbiz, she admitted she would rather they stepped behind the camera.

She told People: 'The thing is, I think if you tell your kid anything, they're going to do the opposite, right. If they do want to be a performer, then being able to be a producer and a writer, or a director.'

She continued: 'I think having that leadership role is really important to the art and be part of the art in a way where they feel like they can have more autonomy and there's more dignity.' 

While Jessica and Honor are close now, in an interview with Real Simple in January, the Fantastic Four star revealed that she and her daughters went to therapy together, admitting that it 'put her in check' as a parent.

'Honor was probably 11, and we were arguing all the time about dumb stuff,' Jessica confessed to the magazine.

'And I was like, I don't want to live like this. This is not fun. I didn’t want us to have a wedge between us.

'As her mother, when I say something, she’s going to hear it as an argument or as me trying to control her.

'I wanted there to be someone who could explain things in a way I couldn’t.

'What I said to Honor was, “I want to be a better parent to you, and this is your forum to basically talk about everything that gets on your nerves that I do."'
