Zendaya is no stranger to bold fashion. The entirety of her Dune: Part Two press tour has been littered with standout style moments, whether that has meant pulling out a gobsmacking archival outfit or wearing fresh-off-the-runway looks.

At the film’s New York City premiere Sunday night, the star once again turned heads in another sci-fi-inspired ensemble, this time courtesy of Stéphane Rolland's Spring/Summer 2024 Couture collection.

Her long-sleeved white gown features a pointed-pronged cutout that extended from the center of her torso down to nearly the tops of her knees. At the bottom of the dress, 3-D golden shards in half circular shapes emerge from the hemline.

As a Bulgari ambassador, the actor whipped out diamond and emerald-encrusted High Jewelry Serpenti earrings and rings from the luxury brand. She capped off the look with Jimmy Choo shoes, which weren't visible in photos from underneath her sweeping ivory dress.

For the Dune sequel's press tour, Zendaya has been working with her close friend and longtime stylist, Law Roach, to curate a futuristic wardrobe that honors the film franchise's rich cinematic universe. Roach recently described their sartorial approach in an interview with Harper's Bazaar: “I think of it as method dressing, kind of like method acting.”

Other major fashion moments that Zendaya has recently pulled off include a vintage Mugler chrome suit of armor with clear panels across her entire body, a Balmain menswear set that resembled a literal sand dune, and a glitchy glow-in-the-dark skirt suit from Givenchy by Alexander McQueen.
