Eva Longoria rocks fiery 23-carat ring at ‘Flamin’ Hot’ premiere
Eva Longoria stole the show on Friday night at the premiere of her directorial debut, “Flamin’ Hot.” The “Desperate Housewives” star, 48, rocked a black lace Roberto Cavalli dress covered in jet-black beading, lace, sheer panels, and beading. Longoria accessorized her look with a massive flame ring featuring an array of red, orange, and yellow gems and a matching manicure, sporting a red chrome manicure with orange flames painted on her ring finger. The fire-themed details were certainly appropriate for the film, which follows the true story of Frito Lay janitor Richard Montañez and how he turned Flamin’ Hot Cheetos into a worldwide phenomenon.
According to luxury jewelry brand Chopard, Eva’s ring is made from 18-karat rose gold and titanium and features 23.43 carats of orange opals, yellow-orange sapphires, diamonds, and rubies. UK jewelry expert Maxwell Stone of Steven Stone Jewelers told Page Six Style that the ring may have had an additional meaning beyond the obvious Cheeto reference for the first-time director on her big night. “Not only are yellow sapphires rare, but they’re believed to be a powerful talisman for those seeking to achieve their goals – adding an extra layer of sentiment to the ring as the film is Eva’s directorial debut,” Stone said, adding he estimates the ring to be worth about $30,000.
The star shared a series of snaps from the event’s red carpet and went on to post a new Reel today with some behind-the-scenes videos of the premiere. Her stylish evening follows a busy month of fashion for Longoria, who rocked everything from a nearly-nude gown to a white skirt with a thigh-high slit at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
