12 Jul
Summary
- Zendaya's stylist Law Roach creates outfits honoring her film roles.
- Method looks include Spider-Man, Dune, and The Odyssey inspirations.
- Outfits span from robot suits to goddess gowns and tenniscore.
Zendaya and her long-time stylist, Law Roach, have cultivated a unique approach to red carpet fashion known as method dressing. This strategy involves creating outfits that directly reference Zendaya's characters and the films she stars in.
Her recent appearances have paid tribute to her role as the Greek goddess Athena in the upcoming film, The Odyssey. This follows a series of striking ensembles for other major projects. For the Dune franchise, Zendaya embraced futuristic warrior aesthetics with looks like a vintage Thierry Mugler robot suit and Alexander McQueen's cyborg-inspired couture.
Earlier in 2026, her press tour for the film Challengers saw a complete shift to 'tenniscore' fashion, featuring custom dresses and unique accessories reminiscent of the sport. Prior to this, for The Drama, the pair creatively interpreted wedding traditions, incorporating 'something old,' 'something new,' 'something borrowed,' and 'something blue' into distinct designer gowns.
Throughout her career, Zendaya has also honored her roles in the Spider-Man franchise. This includes a Roberto Cavalli gown inspired by Doctor Octopus and a Valentino Haute Couture dress adorned with spiderwebs. For the most recent Spider-Man film, she sported a Giorgio Armani gown with cobweb motifs and a Versace set in the character's signature colors.
