Eva Longoria Wears Jill Milan to Presidential Inauguration

Actress Eva Longoria carried a handbag from Jill Milan, a provider of Italian handbags, to Monday's presidential inauguration in Washington, D.C. Ms. Longoria carried Jill Milan's Pacific Heights Clutch and wore a belted dark rose overcoat as she attended President Barack Obama's second inauguration.

"Eva looked fabulous at the inauguration with the Pacific Heights Clutch," said Jill Fraser, co-founder and CEO of Jill Milan. "The Pacific Heights and her rose-colored coat made for a great outfit."

Ms. Longoria was one of the earliest Hollywood celebrities to carry Jill Milan, as she carried the Art Deco Clutch to the "Desperate Housewives" wrap party last year.

Jill Milan has been the choice of a number of other celebrities for recent red-carpet appearances. Actress Jennifer Lawrence carried the Holland Park Clutch and the Art Deco Clutch to two events leading up to this month's Golden Globe Awards.

Actress Rachel Nichols carried the 450 Sutter to the premiere of her movie "Alex Cross," and Isla Fisher, who will appear in the upcoming film "The Great Gatsby," carried the Jill Milan Art Deco Clutch to the New York premiere of her film "Rise of the Guardians." Other Hollywood personalities who wear Jill Milan include actress Fiona Gubelmann of television's "Wilfred" and Countess Michelle Czernin von Chudenitz, who both are seen frequently in red carpet appearances carrying evening clutches from Jill Milan.
