I’ve at all times appreciate how Zendaya leans into the themes of her movies with how she dresses and does her hair and makeup for premieres. With her recent Dune looks, for instance, she went full-blown futuristic at every event. Now that she’s shifted gears to Challengers, the sexy tennis movie (I mean, how else would you describe it?), Zendaya has been spotted in sportier and sometimes literally tennis-themed looks. And the newest marries athletic chic with one in all the most important trends of the moment: coquette.
Zendaya walked the red carpet on the UK premiere of Challengers serving (pun intended) in a sparkling, tennis-inspired look. She wore a collared halter dress by Thom Browne that featured a tennis racquet pattern amongst its white sequins and tennis racket-like netting within the floor-length skirt. But that is not where the sportiness ends.
The latest golden blonde hair has followed Zendaya to London, and he or she collaborated with stylist Ursula Stephen to provide it a glance we will only describe as coquette-meets-athletic: coqueletic. The super-long style is pulled right into a high, tight braid that may keep her hair off her face should she determine to partake in a tennis match. And it’s topped off with the accessory of the previous few months: a big-ass bow.
