- The Gen Z actress is a style icon known for her avant-garde looks, from donning Tom Ford breastplates to pairing chain crop tops with Vivienne Westwood skirts
- She turned heads on the Venice Film Festival red carpet in a custom Balmain number with a thigh-high slit and doesn’t shy away from cut-outs either
In 2021, Zendaya has continued to prove she’s a fashion icon, popping up on multiple best-dressed lists that STYLE has published throughout the year.
Here’s a look at eight of the most daring outfits the actress has recently worn to red carpets, photo-calls and after-parties …

The actress walked the red carpet in a custom Valentino dress that she paired with Bulgari jewellery and Jimmy Choo heels. According to Elle, she wore over US$6 million worth of diamonds.
In a recent interview with InStyle, Zendaya shared that all of her custom Valentino looks have a hidden tag with her name stitched onto it.
“I’ll tell you what the coolest thing is,” Zendaya said to InStyle. “When Pierpaolo comes up with these beautiful silhouettes for me to wear, he has my name stitched on a little tag inside. So all my custom Valentino pieces have a little ‘Zendaya’ on them.”
Pierpaolo Piccioli is currently the creative director for Valentino.

The dress was designed with a deep neckline, thigh-high slit and a pink bow attached to the waistline.
