Zendaya Is Full of Red Carpet Surprises
Zendaya’s Disney star days are now fully in the past, thanks in part to gigs with Tiffany & Co., Bulgari, and Lancôme. And while she’s also followed in Gigi Hadid’s footsteps as Tommy Hilfiger’s co-designer, somehow, it wasn’t until this week that the 24-year-old became the face of a major fashion label: Valentino. Zendaya hasn’t worn much of Pierpaolo Piccioli’s designs just yet, but one could easily imagine her in the house’s more traditional gowns—or even France’s McDormand’s kooky Met Gala look. It’ll be a while before we get to see her in any of them; Dune, her upcoming film with Timothée Chalamet, won’t hit theaters until October of 2021. (And who knows what shape the press tour will take.) Until then, take a look back at her greatest red carpet hits, from the Met Gala to the many times she’s promoted Spider-Man.
