After years of focus on her famous cleavage, Eva Herzigova is turning the attention onto her lovely legs.
The Czech supermodel let her shapely limbs do the talking as she strolled onto the red carpet at Cannes in a transparent lace gown.
Despite having largely retired from the modelling industry, Herzigova has obviously still got the figure - and legs - for the catwalk at the relatively ancient (in terms of modelling) age of 35.
Femme fatale: Eva Herzigova shows off her shapely legs in a revealing lace dress at the premiere of Che in Cannes today
While Herzigova is undeniably less curvier than her Wondrabra
heydays, when she graced billboards with the iconic phrase 'Hello
boys', she in looking remarkably healthier than her skinny pre-baby
appearance a few years ago.
After giving birth to her first
child George 11 months ago, the model showed she was back in shape at
the premiere of Che at the Cannes Film Festival this afternoon.
She looked remarkably fresh-faced after a late night of partying on Tuesday, when she was photographed looking decidedly slight of frame in a strapless blue confection.
During her pregnancy, the 35-year-old gained more than 25lbs and proudly declared at the time, "I love being fat".
But it appears her affection for carrying extra weight was short lived.
Eva
became a household name after winning the Wonderbra contract in 1994,
thanks to a 30ft billboard displaying her assets with the caption
"Hello Boys".
In 2003, looking startlingly gaunt, she publicly denied mounting speculation she was taking drugs or suffering from anorexia.
She said she was simply neglecting to take care of herself.
Eva explained at the time: "I've never done drugs, because I see the
effects they have on people. I don't like the people they become.
"Even
the day afterwards when you see them, there is nothing attractive about
it. It's upsetting to blame drugs on the fashion industry, because they
are everywhere.
"Drugs have never been a temptation. Because I had such strong roots in my family life, I was fine."
The
Czech-born model, who wed Bon Jovi drummer Tico Torres only to divorce
two years later, now lives with her multi-millionaire Italian boyfriend
Gregorio Marsiaj, 30.
She met the entrepreneur Marsiaj in 2001 after her plane back to New York was grounded in Italy.
Other
stars on the red carpet of the Ernesto 'Che' Guevara film tonight
included the film's stars Benicio Del Toro, who plays the Argentine
revolutionary, and director Steven Soderbergh, best known for the
Ocean's trilogy and Sex, Lies And Videotape.
Che focuses on
Guevara's travels to Cuba in the 1950s and his meeting with future
Cuban leader Fidel Castro and their subsequent overthrowing of the
capitalist Batista regime.

The stars put on their most glamorous gowns for a most popular and biggest internetional film festival called Cannes as Cate Blanchett and Natalie Portman stole the show, but what Julianne Moore wore was criminal.
Flounces, ruffles and clever draping in pale pastel palettes were popular trends on the red carpet at the 61st Cannes Film Festival.
Australian actress Blanchett was the epitome of elegance as she arrived for the screening of Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles' film entry Blindness.
Actress Faye Dunaway knows what suits her age - she wore a figure hugging baby-pink satin gown topped with a matching sash jacket.
Gillian Anderson wore a structured white strapless
dress, which she accessorised with sleek locks and what looks like some
cosmetic enhancement to her lips.
Cannes Jury member Natalie Portman opted for a short length strapless dress with ruffles, but she bucked the trend of pale hues and plumped for an amethyst satin number.
And heading into Stuff.co.nz's hall of 'What were you thinking?' is actress Julianne Moore.
Her dress has got far too much going on - feathers, flowers, diamante, and the draping is most unflattering.
Another star that caught our attention was Mischa Barton. She may be getting bad press about those cellulite shots, but she’s getting good press from us for her navy blue Alberta Ferretti gown.
