One sexy mamma! Monica Bellucci couldn't be less like an Italian matriarch as she plays mother for Dolce & Gabbana campaign

  She is the mother of two young girls and could still give a woman half her age a run for her money in the glamour and figure stakes.

But just a couple of years off her 50th birthday, Monica Bellucci is now being cast to play mother - even if she couldn't look any less like a family matriarch if she tried.
The Italian model is part of Dolce and Gabbana's latest advertising campaign to promote the fashion house's spring 2012 collection.

And she is surrounded by members of her Italian family as she shows off her hourglass figure in three black laces dresses.
But despite being shot next to Italian model Bianca Balti who at 27 is 20 years her junior, Monica looked more like her older sister than a mother figure.
In one scene, Monica sits on some steps with her arm around two young lads as Bianca poses in front of one of them.
In another, she stands on some steps outside a church in a typical Italian family scene with several generations represented.

And in the third shot, Monica sits by a port with the family behind her, looking very Carmen-esque in her off-the-shoulder dress.
The campaign was shot a couple of months ago in the southern Italian town of Portofino and was captured by photographer Giampaolo Sgura.
It was directed by Dolce Domineco himself, one half of the fashionable duo who founded the label back in 1985.
Monica is married to French actor Vincent Cassel with whom she has two daughters, Deva, seven, and one-year-old Léoni.

And as well as carving out a successful career for herself as a top model, Monica is also an acclaimed actress and has recently worked on a number of Hollywood projects.
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 stripped for the camera just after giving birth to her second child Léonie.
