Catherine Zeta-Jones’ daughter Carys Douglas was the spitting image of her mom as she wore her iconic 1999 dress for her 21st birthday.
The Chicago actress, 54, welcomed Carys in 2003 with her husband Michael Douglas, after having son Dylan Michael Douglas in 2000.
And Carys was her mom’s double during the milestone celebrations as she wore her eye-catching pink slip dress that Catherine wore to the 1999 MTV Movie Awards.
Posing with her hands on her hips, she showed off the pale pink saying dress with multicoloured stone and white lace embellishments in a post on her Instagram page.
‘The most perfect 21st I could ask for! 🌸’ she captioned the post, with Catherine commenting: ‘You deserve it sweetheart ❤️.’
The Mask of Zorro star wished her daughter a happy birthday with a carousel of throwback photos and a touching caption paying tribute to the ‘incredible woman’ she has become.

‘Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter @carys.douglas You are the joy of my life. 21 years of watching you blossom in to the most incredible woman you are today is a God given gift that I never take for granted and cherish every day of my life. Thank you for being you. I love you with all my heart ♥️ Mama.’ she wrote.
Carys responded: ‘I love you Mama ❤️thank you for everything- I am so proud to be your daughter.’
Basic Instinct star Michael, 79, penned a similarly touching Instagram message to his daughter with a photo where he can be seen gazing lovingly at her.
He wrote: ‘Happy 21 my darling Carys! You bring me and the world such happiness @carys.douglas ❤️ Dad.’

And Carys expressed her love for her father too, writing: ‘I love you so much Dadda! Thank you for your being the best dad in the world ❤️
Speaking to The Telegraph, Michael revealed it is ‘joyous’ to have children later in life, but opened up about others mistaking him for Carys’ grandfather.
While visiting his daughter at university, Michael said someone came up to him and said ‘This is not grandfather’s day, this is parents’ day’ to which he responded ‘I am a parent!’
‘We’re empty nesters so we can get around a lot more than we used to raising two children in your fifties, sixties, and into your seventies?’ Michael continued, who also has 45-year-old son Cameron with ex-wife Diandra Luker.
‘I have to thank my kids, Dylan and Carys. They’re just extraordinary beings. I probably certainly have to thank their mum and Catherine. They’ve just been a joy. We’ve had no issues per se. Had a lovely, lovely life together. Dylan is completely out of school now and Carys has got one more year of college.
‘But they brought both Catherine and I, just a tremendous amount of joy.’
