Like mother, like daughter.
Mariska Hargitay honored her late mother Jayne Mansfield by wearing a beaded suit inspired by the actress to her Monday appearance on the “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.”
The “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” star put a chic twist on a gown Mansfield wore in 1958, sporting a classic black suit embellished with silver beads.
She finished her look with a pair of black pumps and wore her hair styled in loose curls.
“I like the little bobbles there, they’re very nice,” Colbert remarked, highlighting the embellishments.
“It’s a little homage,” Hargitay responded, adding that her mom wore a “dress just like this at the Cannes Film Festival.”
The late actress — who was widely regarded as a sex symbol in the 1950s and early 1960s — wore a mid-length black dress adorned with similar beading for the film festival in 1958 with husband Mickey Hargitay. She styled it with a black fur stole, dangling earrings and clear embellished mules.
Mansfield also wore white gloves and styled her blond hair in her signature bouffante.
Hargitay, 61, has been promoting her new documentary about her late mother, “My Mom Jayne,” which premiered at the same film festival in May.

“The photos of her, in Cannes in particular, were always so meaningful to me because of how free and happy and in love she was with my father,” Hargitay told Deadline at the premiere, noting that the pictures “seared this emotional place” in her memory.
“To be here, to bring her back here, and to tell her story was quite meaningful,” she continued.
The film icon tragically died at age 34 in a car crash in 1967. Hargitay, who was also in the vehicle, was three years old.
Along with the story of her mother’s life, Hargitay also revealed the shocking family secret she had kept for more than 30 years in the film, which marks her directorial debut.
The star admitted that Mickey Hargitay, who many have believed to be her father, is not her biological parent and that Italian singer Nelson Sardelli is her real dad.
Mariska’s mom filed for divorce from Mickey in 1963. The late Playboy playmate then became involved in a romance with the singer and soon found herself pregnant with Mariska.
“He was my everything, my idol. He loved me so much, and I knew it,” she told Vanity Fair last month of her upbringing with Mickey.
“My Mom Jayne” is set to premiere on HBO and HBO Max June 27.
