Zendaya’s neon dream A glimpse into the future of fashion.

Zendaya stunned fans not once, but twice, during the Challengers red carpet event in Los Angeles, showcasing her knack for both high fashion and on-court style.Following her departure from her usual “method dressing” approach, Zendaya wowed attendees at the film’s afterparty hosted at the Beverly Hills restaurant Funke. Shedding her elaborate lingerie-inspired gown from earlier in the evening, Zendaya slipped into a custom-made neon green dress by esteemed Greek designer Celia Kritharioti, renowned for her legacy as the owner of Greece’s oldest couturier, established back in 1906. Kritharioti’s clientele boasts a roster of A-listers, including her most recent creation for Coco Jones at the 2024 Grammys.

Styled by the talented Law Roach, Zendaya’s ensemble featured a halter design, accentuated by a daring plunging neckline and a playful tennis ball embellishment adorning the front. The floor-length skirt was punctuated by a daring thigh-high split, adding a touch of drama to the ensemble. Completing the look with sophisticated white pointed-toe pumps and dazzling Bulgari diamond earrings, Zendaya effortlessly married elegance with a hint of athletic flair, cementing her status as a fashion icon both on and off the court.
