There is no question as to who created Zendaya’s most recent outfit for Paris Fashion Week.
At the Valentino spring/summer 2023 show on Sunday, the “Euphoria” actress sat first row wearing nothing but the Valentino emblem. She wore a shimmering black jacket, shorts, and a translucent bodysuit with the company’s recognizable “V” insignia encrusted with diamonds.
The Emmy-winning actor chose a straightforward ring and a pair of chandelier earrings for her jewelry. She completed the look by applying a swipe of brick red lipstick and wearing her hair straight with a smooth side part.
At the performance, Zendaya sat next to Naomi Campbell and Law Roach, her go-to stylist. At the occasion, she was seen socializing with Florence Pugh, Dove Cameron, and Ashley Park, who played Emily in “Emily in Paris.”
According to Nylon, the actress and singer joined Valentino’s worldwide brand ambassador program in December 2020. The ballgown she wore on September 12 when she won an Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a drama is one of the label’s best-dressed moments.
In an interview with Vogue before the event, Roach said that the dress was influenced by Linda Evangelista’s 1987 Valentino outfit as well as Grace Kelly’s 1950s style. Her Valentino creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli had a strapless gown built especially for her, with a peplum bodice and a voluminous skirt.
The actress also went to the fashion house’s fall/winter 2022 fashion show in March, when she attracted comparisons to Barbie due to her all-pink ensemble from the “Pink PP” collection of Valentino.
