Zendaya, Queen of the red carpet, has made her 2023 award show return this weekend and we couldn't be more excited. After attending the NAACP Image Awards on Saturday in an archive Versace couture dress, the actor then served another two *lewks* at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards (AKA the SAGs). Yup, Zendaya might not attend many red carpets but, when she does, she always knocks it out of the park. So, let's unpack her SAG Awards dresses, shall we?
Zendaya, who was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series for her role in Euphoria, arrived on the red carpet in a major spring-inspired design. The baby pink custom Valentino ballgown is covered with rosettes of all sizes, reaching from the end of the train all the way up to the middle of the corset-style bodice. Miranda Priestly be damned, this floral look really is groundbreaking IMO. Zendaya's dress is then accessorised with a glitzy necklace featuring multicoloured stones, a pair of stud earrings, and a single matching silver cuff.
As for beauty details, Zendaya wore her hair in a voluminous old Hollywood-style bob, styled with a side part. When you look a little closer, you can also see she's rocking the divisive spider lashes trend on her low lash line.
Then, to present an award alongside Paul Mescal, Zendaya swapped her couture dress for a slinky strapless Giorgio Armani Privé number, complete with a statement cut out panel underneath the bust, which she went on to wear for the rest of the event. We're also obsessed with that chunky choker, giving this 'fit a whole retro vibe.
Yep, like we said, Zendaya absolutely owned the SAGs. The question is, which of her dresses do you love more, the floral Valentino gown or the slinky Giorgio Armani number?
