Zendaya may be playing Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, in The Odyssey, but the American actress' red carpet style is a masterclass in method dressing that requires no translation.
The Drama actress, 29, has done nothing short of bringing her historic character to life throughout the ongoing global press tour of the upcoming Christopher Nolan blockbuster, and her recent trip to the Big Apple was simply no exception.
Her recent foray in the US capital, not only saw not one, but two killer new looks from the Spider-Man starlet and her esteemed stylist Law Roach, as well as a brand new hairstyle.
The Euphoria actress swapped her intricate and cascading Grecian styles from last week for a short curly do that looked equally as exquisite on the Californian-born star.
While her striking tresses caught our attention, it was her plunging minidress that truly stole the show. The piece in question was a 2008 archival piece by Alberta Ferretti and was the perfect addition to Zendaya's evolving red carpet wardrobe.
The white mini dress featured an ultra-plunging V-neckline and intricate gold detailing, making the look a perfect fit for the press run.
To finish the look, she leaned into a trend that might make millennials everywhere shudder; the silver-screen queen topped off her sartorial Grecian fantasy with a pair of knee-high gladiator sandals.
While 2010s teens will have likely had their favourite pair of the hallmark footwear from Topshop, Zendaya seriously made a case for a gladiator sandal revival, her contribution to the former trend being a killer pair from the archives of Sophia Webster.
A true glamazon
Zendaya's god-worthy glam for the press tour deserves its own exhibition; her 'earth and sky' colour makeup look immediately added to our moodboard following its debut last week.
In New York, Zendaya kept the warm honey-hues for her daytime glamour; her makeup comprised of a gilded-toffee colour palette featuring glossy nude lips, shimmering sunkissed bronzer and matching eyeshadow, all complete with lashings of lash-lengthening mascara.
New York round two
For Zendaya's second NYC fashionista moment just hours later, the Dune starlet called on the expertise of Jacquemus, who dressed the star in a stand-out ab-baring shirtdress we can all be inspired by.
The dress in question is an A-line offering from the fashion designer's Spring 2027 collection and perfectly flattered the statuesque actress, the triangle midriff cut-out exposing her impressively toned stomach.
Zendaya wore the ensemble for an appearance on the Today Show, keeping the glam consistent with her newly transformed cropped hair and exquisite maple-bronze makeup.
Completing her look were a pair of pointed-toe white stilettos that wouldn't have looked out of place across the pond at Wimbledon. C'est magnifique!
