Eva Longoria to visit Dubai for Bloomingdale's opening

DUBAI // Eva Longoria will be making her first trip to the Middle East on September 30.

The actress – most known for her character Gabrielle in the award-winning US television series Desperate Housewives – will take part in a meet-and-greet at Dubai Mall’s Bloomingdale’s on October 1.

“I am very excited to be in Dubai for the launch of Bloomingdales’ ‘New York New York’ campaign. Despite the short trip, I can't wait to celebrate with my fans in the Middle East! I am sure it is going to be an unforgettable experience,” said Longoria today.

Bloomingdale’s fall/winter 2011 campaign will begin on September 29 and continue until November 12. 

Longoria is not alone in putting Dubai Mall on her agenda for October. Kim Kardashian, American reality show star, is slated to be in Dubai between October 13 and 15 to attend the opening of a Millions of Milkshakes branch in the mall with her mother, Kris Jenner, on October 14.
