Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria is featured on the cover of the February 2009 “Man Issue†of US Glamour.
And while she wears a casual jeans & t-shirt ensemble (like a typical guy would) on the cover, Eva Longoria is captured as a sexy Fifties housewife inside the magazine.
The Fifties inspiration is a continuation of Eva Longoria's recent shoot, alongside the other women of Desperate Housewives, for TV Guide.
Implications - The nostalgic look is highly sought after in the fashion world. To viewers, it represents an innocent era that is perceived to have a sexier side thanks to the subtlety of the sensuality from the past. Ultimately, sex has become devalued in today's modern times.
