Slipping into a strapless black gown for the night's proceedings, Eva was the picture of poise in the velvet masterpiece, which was complete with a glittering silver neckline. 

She swept back her iconic raven tresses into a slick updo complete with a singular  face-framing tendril left to flow freely.

Oozing old Hollywood glamour, Eva accessorised with a delicate diamond necklace, glittering hoop earrings and matching bracelets.

The 28-year-old looked stunning in a plunging black gown for the evening, which was also attended by Princess Stéphanie of Monaco and Victoria Silvstedt.

Eva's dedication to the cause

Back in September, Eva, who is Honorary Chair and Ambassador of the Global Gift Foundation, led the Global Gift Gala in Madrid, alongside Spanish actress, philanthropist and founder of the Global Gift Foundation, María Bravo, soprano Angélica de la Riva, and Cash & Rocket's founder Julie Brangstrup.

Talking exclusively to HELLO! about the cause, which saw 50 women travel across the country for four days in red cars under the motto 'Let’s Drive the Change', raising £112,288 for the foundation.

Talking about the achievement, Eva exclusively told HELLO: "I love Madrid and to spend it with the ladies who had driven from Marbella to Madrid to raise money for the Global Gift Foundation was just fabulous. 

"I stayed at The Four Seasons, which is my favourite spot, and the night before we had a fun dinner with friends including Maria, Nick, Leonor and of course Pepe [Eva's husband] too at Nota Blu."

"These four days have shown what we can achieve when we unite our voices, our energy and our commitment to a common cause. Every woman who has been part of this tour has helped turn solidarity into a force capable of transforming lives."
