Red carpet queen Zendaya seems to have read the same style manual as her co-star in the film for the 2022 Oscars Dunes Timothee Chalamet. While Timothée remained shirtless under his beaded Louis Vuitton gown, Zendaya wore a silk Valentino blouse so tiny it rivaled the looks sexy preppies of the season signed by Miu Miu.
Zendaya’s haute couture Valentino micro shirt and silver sequined skirt drew comparisons to Sharon Stone’s 1998 Oscars attire, which had seen her surpass convention in a men’s shirt nonchalantly tucked into a satin skirt. Returning to the star who agreed to take a chance on the red carpet at the 2022 Oscars, it must be admitted that Zendaya’s looks – from her literal nods to Spider-Man to her homage to black legend Eunice W Johnson – always have an interesting reference thanks to her stylist —Storyteller Law Roach. Her sophisticated nod to Sharon Stone in 1998 on the red carpet at the 2022 Oscars shines the spotlight on her once again.
The actress’ glittering Valentino gowns were also an eye-catching choice for anyone expecting Zendaya to rock another neon look designed by creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli. Remember the sunflower yellow Valentino dress she wore to last year’s Academy Awards? It was the biggest wow moment of the night thanks to the windblown mermaid hair and huge Bulgari stone around her neck.
This year’s look shows an adult side to the star who has come of age in the spotlight. If indeed Zendaya uses her clothes as words, her Oscars 2022 ensemble complete with Serpenti Bulgari jewels declares that the star will continue to surprise—and delight us.
