Zendaya Wears Spiderweb Versace Gown & Spider Brooch With Tom Holland in Shanghai
The Emmy-winning actress paired the gown with smoky makeup and extra-long extensions, a look styled to highlight the film’s press tour.
On Friday, Zendaya attended the Shanghai premiere of Spider-Man: Brand New Day wearing an archival Versace gown paired with gothic-inspired makeup and micro bangs. The look marked a departure from recent "clean girl" aesthetic trends.
Throughout the Spider-Man: Brand New Day press tour, Zendaya and stylist Law Roach have leaned into gothic glamour with vampy vintage pulls. The duo moved away from previous ethereal and goddess-inspired looks from earlier press stops.
The Versace gown features zig-zagging white fabric, black crystal-embellished netting, a thigh-high slit, and spider-verse mesh. She accessorized with a Chopard brooch studded in diamonds and a 19-carat yellow sapphire, styled by hair architect Ursula Stephen.
Makeup artist Nikki Wolff created the moody charcoal smoky-eye look while Ursula Stephen constructed the Audrey Hepburn-esque micro bangs. These elements complemented the gown's dualities, which Donatella Versace originally designed for spring 2016 couture.
This press tour coincides with the fourth film of the Spider-Man franchise. Zendaya continues integrating thematic elements from both archival fashion and the film's narrative into her public appearances.
