Pretty In Pink! Eva Longoria brings WOW factor to the Melbourne Fashion Festival in Alex Perry lace dress
She may have been off the showbiz radar for a few months but Eva Longoria made sure she was the center of attention when she made her first appearance at Melbourne Fashion Festival on Tuesday.
Bringing some Hollywood glamour to the event, The Desperate Housewives star is in Australia as a VIP guest for L'Oreal Paris and put her best fashion foot forward.
Eva, 39, has been a global ambassador for the cosmetics giant for almost 10 years and is appearing at a number of events for the brand.
VIP: Actress Eva Longoria looked stunning in an Alex Perry lace dress at the Melbourne Fashion Festival on Tuesday
The pint-sized actress looked stunning in a pink Alex Perry dress at celebrity night spot Club 23, the hip venue of the moment in the Crown Casino.
Her outfit was from the Australian designer's latest collection, and the gorgeous lace piece was a flattering mid-length and fitted the actor like a glove.
She accessorised with a pair of pointed toe high heels accompanied by an understated necklace and bangle as well as her red Kabbalah bracelet.
Eva's makeup of nude coloured lipstick with dark smokey eyes, was framed by her bold fringe and poker straight chocolate hair.
While in Melbourne, Eva will be fulfilling her duties for the make up brand alongside the Australian face of L'Oréal Paris, Megan Gale.
The pair will sit front-row for the Grand Showcase Runway on Wednesday, the same show Georgia May Jagger was set to walk.
Georgia landed in Sydney en route to Melbourne on Tuesday - but she left Australia immediately after she was told L'Wren Scott, who was dating her father Mick Jagger, had died.

Eva has already been rubbing shoulders with some local celebrities since she arrived - Kate Waterhouse, the Sydney Sun-Heralds fashion editor, tweeted her excitement over meeting the movie star.
She posted a picture on Instagram and said: 'Great to meet the lovely @evalongoria at @vamff. #evalongoria #vamff #melbournefashionfestival #Melbourne #fashion.'
The bubbly pocket rocket appeared on The Project on Tuesday and discussed everything from feeling sexy at 39 to the perks of being the ambassador of a major cosmetics brand.
'It means I get free makeup,' she told the panel, which included 80's pop icon Paula Abdul.
'We get to travel the world and represent the brand and what it means to say 'because you're worth it'. It's been a lot of fun.'
After Paula divulged that she once shared a house with Whoopi Goldberg, the actress, who turns 40 next year said she still has housemates.
'I have a big sorority house, my girlfriends all live with me.'
