Eva Longoria pairs sheer lace gown with ornate headpiece at Day of the Dead gala
Eva Longoria turned up the heat with her presence at Carlos Eric Lopez’s Day of the Dead gala. For the occasion, the actor wore a floor-sweeping lace gown and paired it with other interesting and fashionable accessories and additions. The gown, designed by Coral Castillo, featured a deep plunging V-neckline and a sheer fabric. It featured lace panels throughout the ensemble.
The sheer fabric ran from her torso to her legs, while Eva Longoria opted for high-waisted lingerie. Moreover, the lace panels provided a pattern to the monochromatic outfit, with the bust featuring a black satin fabric. Meanwhile, the star paired her gown with a large striking headpiece. It consisted of red and white roses with sticks peaking on top like a ray of sunshine. The actor dialed up the drama with flower-patterned beads over her forehead and glistening beads on her cheekbones.
Eva Longoria chose to keep the Coral Castillo gown in the spotlight and opted for minimal accessories, including large hoop earrings, bangles, and rings. Furthermore, the actor shared a sneak peek video of her attendance at the event on Instagram. Celebrity makeup artist Elan Bongiorno gave Longoria the bold glam look with long eyelashes, smokey eyeshadow, and a bright red matte lip. Hairstylist Frankie Payne left the actor’s long black tresses open and flowy.
Meanwhile, designer Coral Castillo shared that the ensemble was “inspired by the strength and spirit of Mexican culture.” The piece was intended to celebrate beauty and heritage with elegance.
