A Look Back At Zendaya’s Most Iconic Looks

If there’s one person who owns the red carpet with their style, it would be Zendaya. There’s a distinct artistry to the way Zendaya approaches fashion. The star doesn’t just put on outfits; she creates moments. Whether she’s channelling Old Hollywood glam or futuristic fashion, one thing’s clear: she’s playing chess while everyone else plays checkers. 

Each look that she steps out in becomes an instant showstopping moment that everyone wants to bookmark. Her uncanny ability to seamlessly transition from the timeless elegance of vintage Hollywood to the bold innovation of contemporary design is nothing short of captivating.

From rare archival haute couture finds to cutting-edge innovative designs, Zendaya proves that fashion, in her hands, is both breathtaking art and a powerful force. Let’s take a closer look at the visionary designs that come to life on her!

Zendaya delivered yet another masterclass on power dressing at Louis Vuitton’s Spring 2025 show in Paris, reimagining traditional suiting with avant-garde flair. The multi-hyphenate star turned heads in a deconstructed ensemble featuring a sharp black-and-white blazer paired with a voluminous beige miniskirt from the brand’s Cruise 2025 collection.

Game, set, style match!

For her movie Challengers’ promo tour,  Zendaya served looks after looks, combining the movie’s theme and her ever-elegant style. Embracing the film’s sporty theme, she redefined tennis whites in a series of bold and stylish ensembles. From a flirty white mini skirt paired with striking tennis-ball yellow platforms to high-octane glam interpretations of athletic wear, every outfit, expertly styled by Law Roach, proved that Zendaya is in a league of her own. 

At the 2024 Met Gala, Zendaya delivered not one but two truly show-stopping looks, both of which nailed the night’s theme, ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’.The night began with a stunning design from Maison Margiela by John Galliano, a liquid emerald-and-sapphire nature gown with biomechanical petals, embodying the ‘Garden of Time’ through the avant-garde creation. Then, the coup de théâtre: Zendaya stepped out in an archival 1996 Givenchy by Galliano noir gown, styled by Law Roach. Its knife-pleated skirt and corseted drama fused Old Hollywood mystique with Galliano’s anarchic romance, showcasing how the star went all out by bringing fashion history to the forefront.
