A friend indeed! Designer Victoria Beckham posted a photo of her making last-minute alterations to best friend Eva Longoria's gown ahead of the Fourth Annual Global Gift Gala in London on Tuesday
Eva Longoria and Victoria Beckham have long developed a friendship built on similar family values and a love of fashion.
In fact, the former Desperate Housewives actress has previously spoken about the perks of having the fashion designer as her bestie, citing the ability to raid her closest as a highlight.
So it's little wonder then that the petite brunette, who is regularly spotted walking the red carpet in one of her best pal's creations, would turn to the British fashionista to dress her for the Fourth Annual Global Gift Gala, being held in London on Tuesday.
'Fitting @EvaLongoria for her @GlobalGiftGala in London tomorrow night #globalgifters x vb,' the mom-of-four tweeted her more than seven million followers on Monday, posting a photo of herself on hands and knees pinning the hem of the striking black gown.
The 39-year-old is barefoot in the image and wearing all black, with her long brunette tresses down and falling in front of her face, obscuring it from the camera.
She has a small pink pin cushion by her side as she busily gets to work altering the dress to fit her client.

Eva, 38, stands as still as a statue with her hands on her hips, showing off the frock's figure-hugging fit and intricately detailed bodice, which features cut-out sides that expose a lace bra top underlay.
The Latina lovely has her hair pulled back into a sleek bun, while she is made up to the nines with dramatic dark, smoky eyes, defined cheekbones and nude lips.
Longoria is chairing the event, which benefits not only her own Eva Longoria Foundation, but also the Global Gift Foundation and Caudwell Children charities, while she made it a family affair by bringing her mother and sister Esme along with her, as well as hairdresser-to-the-star and best pal Ken Paves.
Girls' night out: Later that night, Eva slipped into an LBD with sexy sheer polka-dot plunging neckline as she was accompanied by some friends and her mother, Ella Eva Mireles, for a night on the town

Held at the ME London Hotel, the annual event 'pays tribute to those who support and foster awareness for children and the empowerment of women worldwide'.
The evening consists of a sit-down dinner, one-of-a-kind live auction and awards presentation.
Money raised to date has already exceeded $12 million.
She's a hit: The 39-year-old has garnered quite the celebrity fanbase, with plenty of big names vying to wear her designs, the latest of which were debuted to great fanfare at New York Fashion Week in September
