Eva Longoria Parker dazzles in long zebra print gown and short hair

It used to be that guests steered clear of wearing black or white to weddings, but Eva Longoria Parker wasn't going to be put off by an old fashioned convention.

The Desperate Housewives star combined both colours to dazzling effect in a zebra print gown in Puerto Rico at the weekend.

She was attending the nuptials of Without A Trace actress Roselyn Sanchez and Brothers And Sisters actor Eric Winter.

Eva's choice of floor-length gown wasn't without upset however. Another guest managed to step on it as they arrived, pinning her in position.

But the 33-year-old took the mishap in good humour, laughing along with her fellow guests.

Eva teemed the over-the-top gown with a short updo and simple accessories.

Just two months ago the actress spoke out to deny pregnancy rumours, after she was pictured looking bigger than usual.

The petite star, married to basketball player Tony Parker, hit back at the claims, insisting she was merely 'a little rounder' after giving up exercise over the summer.

'I've stopped working out and gained about seven pounds over the summer, which is a lot for a small person,' she said.
