Zendaya’s triumphant return to the Met Gala was nothing short of spectacular, as she, alongside her longtime stylist Law Roach, delivered an unforgettable fashion extravaganza.
After a five-year hiatus, Zendaya graced the event as a co-chair, making a striking entrance in a custom Maison Margiela creation by John Galliano. The ethereal gown, drawing inspiration from Galliano’s iconic 1999 Christian Dior piece, showcased a mesmerizing blend of deep blue and green tones reminiscent of a majestic peacock.
Adorned with metallic birds, berries, and vines, the ensemble captured the essence of the evening’s theme, “The Garden of Time.” Completing the look was a striking feather headpiece by milliner Stephen Jones, nestled atop a hand-painted forest-green beret. Zendaya’s makeup, mirroring the signature Margiela aesthetic, featured thin brows, dramatic eyes, and flawless doll-like skin, paying homage to the brand’s celebrated couture show.

In a bold and unexpected move, Zendaya revealed a dramatic second look later in the evening. Opting for a vintage Givenchy gown from Galliano’s inaugural collection in 1996, sourced from the prestigious Beverly Hills boutique Lily et Cie, she made a powerful statement of self-expression and individuality. The dress, symbolic of Zendaya’s personal investment in herself, underscored her autonomy and unique style sensibility.
Accessorized with a headpiece crafted from a bouquet of roses by Philip Treacy for Alexander McQueen’s spring/summer 2007 collection, Zendaya radiated elegance and grace throughout the night.
Zendaya’s collaboration with Law Roach has consistently set the bar high for Met Gala fashion. From her enchanting Cinderella-inspired gown in 2019, magically transformed on the red carpet, to this year’s breathtaking ensembles, Zendaya continues to swoon audiences with her unparalleled sense of style and flair.
