Gabrielle Solis: a Character Written Around Fashion

Of all the roles in this section, Gabrielle Solis on Desperate Housewives may be the one where fashion is most literally the character: a former model written into a suburban drama, whose wardrobe signals the character's history in nearly every episode. Playing her brought Longoria a Golden Globe nomination to go with two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and made her own red carpet appearances a continuation of the character's story in the eyes of the audience. The earlier role — Isabella Braña on The Young and the Restless from 2001 to 2003 — had already put her in daily television, where a character's look is tracked episode by episode.

Film Work and Philanthropy

Alongside television, Longoria starred in Harsh Times (2005), The Sentinel (2006) and Over Her Dead Body (2008), and her public profile includes humanitarian work recognized with a Philanthropist of the Year naming.

The term glamour was originally meant to be; a spell cast over someone, particularly to change how things appeared to them. The primary modern meaning of the word relates to fascination, charisma, beauty, or attraction.  Celebrities are often referenced as glamorous.  In addition to celebs being glamorous, regular every day people, or their lifestyles, can be described as glamorous.  Although many words which end in "our" in British English are spelled with "or" in American English, "glamour" is an exception with the "u" usually being retained.  This may be due to its original being Scottish rather than French or Latin.  The alternative spelling "glamour" is sometimes used in American English, but not as frequently.  Also, Glamour in modern day is occasionally abbreviated as simply Glam.
