His former alter ego is one of the go-to costumes for a masquerade bash.

And Antonio Banderas could clearly see no better disguise than The Mask of Zorro for Eva Cavall's ultra-glamorous birthday bash on Friday night.

The 55-year-old movie hunk, who played the famous hero in 1998, had even bagged himself a masked accomplice for the night, in the form of doting girlfriend Nicole Kimpel, 34.

The loved-up duo simply couldn't keep their eyes off each other ads they were pictured at the A-list One Mayfair event.

And though his Zorro alias still seemed like a beloved one, Antonio just couldn't seem to keep his mask on for more than five minutes on the night.

Though rugged and unshaven he dressed sharply in a black tuxedo and bow tie, looking youthful beyond his years and not a day older than when he finished the franchise in 2005.

His counterpart made a perfect pussycat with a sparkling silver mask, complete with ears, and a furry stole.

She wore a long and colourful coat to the bash under which she later unveiled a plunging silver evening gown.

The blonde, whom Banderas has been linked to since only earlier this year, certainly seemed to turn him goeey and they shot loving looks at each other in front of the cameras.

On the night, the dreamy duo were seen hanging out with Robin Cavalli and model Victoria Silvstedt, who was similarly masked for the occasion.

Nicole is a Dutch investment banker, 20 years Banderas' junior, who he has recently introduced to the showbusiness world, Dutch investment banker.

Famously, Antonio was previously married to Melanie Griffith for nine years until 2005 and before that Ana Leza.
