Zendaya must have been tiring of tennis whites and court greens, as she followed up her pink and black corset gown with another unexpected offering during her Challengers press tour.
On April 20, the 27-year-old actor arrived at a promo event in a baby pink custom Jacquemus polo dress, featuring a preppy cropped polo holding up a low-waisted babydoll skirt by a drawstring. Zendaya kept the rest of the look minimal, with just a few coquette touches. Consider this another W for Z and her longtime stylist Law Roach.
While her LA premiere gown completely broke protocol, Zendaya found some middle ground with her latest look, giving the ultra femme trend a bit of a sporty twist with her her skirt’s drawstring bow and soft pink sling-backs. To top it all off, she pulled her honey blonde blowout back with a Gossip Girl-esque headband affixed with a more standard satin bow.
This is not the only time bows have been featured in one of Zendaya’s Challengers looks, of course. Earlier this month, the Euphoria star topped off a custom Thom Browne pleated gown with a large white bow affixed to her braided ponytail. Daring cutouts and exposed abs have also become a recent signature for Zendaya on both the Challengers and Dune press tours.
Who else doesn’t want this press tour to end? Sadly, there’s only a few days left until Challengers hits theaters on Friday, April 26. The film stars Zendaya as a former tennis pro caught between her husband (Mike Faist) and former flame (Josh O’Connor) as the two ex-best friends face off on and off the court. Actually, Friday can’t come soon enough.
