Eva Longoria was born to shine. Perhaps that's why sequins look so good on her? On Mar. 19, the Desperate Housewives alum—who recently celebrated her 50th birthday with bestie Jessica Alba in Miami—continued her fashion-fueled press tour for Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip in New York City. Highlights so far have included strapless black lace frocks and not one, but two cherry red bodycon maxi dresses. That said, my favorite look was quietly sandwiched in between those glamorous pulls.
In a nod to spring 2025 color trends, stylist Maeve Reilly put two girly pastel hues to work within Longoria's single sequin-on-sequins ensemble. Her long-sleeved blush nude mesh polo reimagined a classic workwear silhouette with rows of iridescent ribbing, an unadorned contrast collar, and a deep-V neckline. The dazzling design comes courtesy of NYC-based luxury label Monse, the same brand behind both of Taylor Swift's sequin-studded UFO-themed 2024 VMAs dresses. But there's an even bigger plot twist buried in the fine print of this outfit. As it turns out, her plunging top isn't a top at all. It's a midi dress that's been cleverly layered to create the illusion of separates.
