Zendaya Shares Her Favourite Red Carpet Looks and First-Ever Premiere Outfit From Target: "I Felt Cool"

"When I was 14 and at my first movie premiere, my outfit was a bunch of stuff that I had from Target. And I thought I was fly. I felt cool. To this day, I think that's really all that matters. Then you know you're doing the right thing," Zendaya said.

Zendaya named her Joan of Arc inspired Met Gala look, courtesy of Versace, as her favourite. She worked with Law Roach on the outfit in 2018, coordinating her knight's armour with Jimmy Choo heels and Tiffany & Co. jewellery.

"Nothing could hurt me — I was like a warrior," Zendaya said of this hot pink Tom Ford breastplate at the 2020 Critics' Choice Awards, which she styled with Christian Louboutin satin pumps and jewels from Djula and Mateo New York.

Zendaya's Moschino butterfly dress at the Australia premiere of The Greatest Showman called for little more than a pair of Stuart Weitzman sandals. She arrived to the carpet under an umbrella, sheltered from the rain and ready to spread her wings.

Zendaya's 2021 Oscars gown, created by Valentino, not only glowed in the dark, but was an homage to Cher's cutout look from The Sonny and Cher Show in the 1970s. "All that custom Bob Mackie that she owned, I want all of that. Cher, if you ever want to style me, Law [Roach] and I would love it," Zendaya said, deeming the star her fashion icon. In fact, Cher also wore a yellow Bob Mackie two-piece to the Oscars in 1973!
