Eva Longoria rocked a shimmery chrome gown as she welcomed a cavalcade of celebrities to he rannual gala with The Global Gift Foundation this Saturday night.
This year’s glittering fete, the 11th one that Eva has thrown with the nonprofit, took place at the height of Paris Fashion Week at the 8th arrondissement’s iconic Four Seasons Hotel George V.
For her latest red carpet appearance Eva, 48, showcased her statuesque figure in a clinging ensemble that was draped flatteringly across her taut midriff.
Her split gown allowed the Desperate Housewives bombshell to bare one of her knockout legs as she balanced expertly on a towering pair of black ankle-strap stilettos.
The getup, which featured a swirling wood print, was decorated with sprays of black tulle frills and featured an extravagantly large knot right at the waistline.

Slicking her jet-black hair tightly back, she sharpened her screen siren features with makeup and lent the ensemble a touch of glitz with an ornate pair of earrings.
Eva swanned around the event and enjoyed the company of her celebrity guests, including the dashing French broadcaster Bernard Montiel, who at one point gallantly planted a kiss on her hand.
At one point she and Maria Bravo, one of the founders of The Global Gift Foundation, could be spotted hobnobbing with hairdresser-to-the-stars Ken Paves.
Over the course of the red carpet affair Eva rubbed shoulders with a host of local celebs, including journalist Melissa Theuriau and singer Kendji Girac, who once won the French version of The Voice.
Her Paris gala also afforded her the opportunity to have an on-camera confab with none other than Lara Fabian, one of the biggest pop stars Belgium has produced.
Meanwhile the American contingent at the blowout bash included none other than Christina Milian, who cut an electrifying figure in an elegant true blue gown.
Her sizzling outfit, which fell tantalizingly off one shoulder to betray just a trace of cleavage, was cut up one side to leggy effect and featured a sash that stretched back to become a train.
Gathering her hair back into a bun, she accessorized with a gleaming silver clutch and a complementary pair of hoop earrings for her latest night on the town.

The Global Gift Foundation is a nonprofit that, according to its website, aims to ‘raise funds to eradicate poverty and hunger ensuring our most vulnerable don’t have to struggle to put food on the table; access to health care, lifesaving treatments and therapies; provide shelter, clothing and to protect the right to education.’
Their website further notes: ‘We believe in the fight against social injustice and that investing in women’s empowerment will ultimately create positive benefits for all.’
Meanwhile, Eva is fresh off the release of her directorial debut Flamin’ Hot, based on the memoirs of Frito-Lay executive Richard Montanez, who has long touted himself as the inventor of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.
Frito-Lay has repudiated his claim that he created the snack, and a Los Angeles Times exposé in 2021 found that a lower-level employee called Lynne Greenfield played a more pivotal role in the birth of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.
By the time the bombshell report ran, Eva’s movie was already in the pipeline, and the actress-turned-filmmaker has staunchly defended her project ever since.
Flamin’ Hot bowed on Hulu and Disney+ this June and received a tepid critical reaction, to the tune of a 69% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a 58 Metascore on Metacritic.
