Zendaya continued her sporty style pivot with a little help from Lacoste.
At a recent promo event for her new film Challengers in Sydney, Australia, the star embraced tennis-core in a sparkly white set custom-made by Lacoste creative director Pelagia Kolotouros. The brand is a natural addition to Zendaya’s wardrobe for this press tour, given its prestige and history within the world of tennis. (René Lacoste, a legendary French tennis player nicknamed “the Crocodile,” founded the company in 1933.)
In photos posted to Warner Bros. Australia's Instagram account, the actor looks ready for the courts or the runway in an all-white set composed of a bright white racer-back sports bra trimmed in glittery gray and a pair of matching high-rise briefs. She posed alongside costars Josh O'Connor and Mike Faist.
Over the underwear, she wore a white net maxi skirt embellished with silver crystals, adjusting the waistband so it was slightly misaligned with the waistband of the underwear, leaving the brand’s signature crocodile logo visible at the side of her waist.
A thigh-high leg slit revealed a pair of bright white pointed-toe pumps underneath the skirt. She finished off the look with jewelry from Bulgari.
Zendaya and stylist Law Roach shared behind-the-scenes videos of the outfit on Instagram.
Zendaya served up another delectable tennis look at the film’s Australian premiere on Tuesday. She walked the carpet in a custom Loewe gown made of glittering light green fabric and featuring a deep V-neckline and a high side leg slit. Most notably, the front of the dress also included a black imprint of a shadowy figure holding a racket, poised to strike a tennis ball.
As an associate editor at HarpersBAZAAR.com, Chelsey keeps a finger on the pulse on all things celeb news. She also writes on social movements, connecting with activists leading the fight on workers' rights, climate justice, and more. Offline, she’s probably spending too much time on TikTok, rewatching Emma (the 2020 version, of course), or buying yet another corset.
