Think back to summer 2019, a pre-Covid world where we were all captivated by the first season of Euphoria and the high school struggles of its protagonist Rue, played by a disheveled Zendaya in basketball shorts and messy hair. Seven years later, her transformation into a movie star is complete: the former Disney Channel star has evolved from portraying a drug-addled teen to becoming a leading lady in Dune—and her style has progressed just as much as her career.

With the guidance of Law Roach, Zendaya has cemented her status as one of the best-dressed talents of her generation. She has mastered every look, from futuristic Louis Vuitton minidresses to Valentino’s iconic pink under former creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli, and from coveted vintage pieces to archival Mugler power suits. This makes her recent fashion choices seem almost… classic. Perhaps she’s embracing a new aesthetic as a reported newlywed (Roach hinted to a reporter at the SAG Awards that Zendaya and her long-term partner Tom Holland had quietly tied the knot).

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week, she fully embraced spring in a floral McQueen dress that felt more like an English garden than avant-garde. Lately, Zendaya has been favoring bridal whites (perhaps satisfying fans eager for a glimpse of wedding attire?) and has swapped her Italian bob for a bixie cut. This follows her chic yet understated brown Louis Vuitton dress for a surprise appearance at the Oscars on Sunday night. Florals—that beloved seasonal staple—suggest she might be taking a break from fashion surprises for now.

But Zendaya hasn’t lost her playful touch. Later, she changed into another fresh-off-the-runway look: a gray Moschino shorts suit. Unlike the runway version, she wore the jacket open over a white button-down, showing a bit of skin. And with the delicate tendrils flowing from her sleeves, she kept that romantic flair alive.
