Apparently, the Alexander McQueen-era Givenchy couture pull that Zendaya wore to stunt at the Eiffel Tower yesterday was just a warm-up for the actor in an already prodigious string of fashion wins. Today, her fashion odyssey (heh) continues in full force.
For the Paris premiere of The Odyssey, Zendaya and Law Roach put her Louis Vuitton contract to work, with the pair tapping creative director Nicolas Ghesquière to create a dress worthy of the gods. The designer met the brief by diving back into his own archive—just not from Vuitton.
Instead, Ghesquière’s latest custom creation called back to his spring 2006 collection for Balenciaga. Twenty years later, though, Ghesquière revisited the moment for Zendaya, fashioning a white-and-ivory empire waist dress with lace panels, an ab-baring cutout, a thigh-high slit, and a train. Atop the slinky gown, Zendaya wore an operatic bolero, its structured ruffles more reminiscent of a Renaissance collar than a Greek peplos.
Ghesquière, for his part, told Vogue’s Sarah Mower that the looks were his take on a “baroque rock star.” These days, it’s fit for a goddess.
