She may ooze grace and glamour, but Monica Bellucci still found time to flash some cheeky cleavage.

The actress took centre stage shooting the latest Dolce & Gabbana campaign in Portofino, Italy.

With her flawless complexion and natural good looks, the Italian beauty easily defied her 47 years.

The Irréversible star was joined by model Bianca Balti, who looked equally stunning, but failed to steal the show despite being 20 years younger.

Monica was dressed in a variety of outfits, all of which were black and complimented by lashings of red lipstick.

In one particular scene, she wore a stylish overcoat with an ultra feminine cut and plunging neckline.

She also wore a figure-hugging bodice with the bra straps clearly visible, as her thighs were on display beneath the crotchet outer garment covered in pale blue flowers.

While spending her early career concentrating on foreign films, Bellucci has had a string of Hollywood projects recently.

She joined forced with Rachel Weisz for The Whistleblower, which tells the tale of a policewoman who risks her own safety to uncover a human-trafficking scandal set in post-war Bosnia.

Monica also starred opposite Nicholas Cage in Disney’s 2010 fantasy The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.

But it is her latest French film That Summer that will set tongues wagging, as she ᵴtriƥped for the camera just after giving 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 to her second 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 Léonie.

She said: ‘Actually, I think it’s beautiful because it’s anti-fashion, this nudity.

‘It’s very round, it’s as if women are scared today of this kind of body. The beauty of youth finishes and then another kind of beauty comes.

‘I have 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren and breastfeeding changes all the body systems. I was playing someone dangerously 𝓈ℯ𝓍y and at the same time I was breastfeeding every two hours, so it was funny.

‘The nudity in this movie is very poetic, very romantic and very elegant.’
