Zendaya Wore Balmain To The ‘Dune’ Venice Film Festival Premiere

Zendaya continues to prove that she is the queen of all red carpets as she arrived for the ‘Dune’ Venice Film Festival premiere on Friday (September 3), following the photocall earlier in the day.

She blew me away wearing a custom Balmain gown, which according to the brands Instagram, “The bespoke leather gown was crafted using an exact model of the stars’ bust, taking full advantage of the Balmain atelier and the house’s artisanal tradition.”

I love the wet-look approach to this.

A similar bustier was presented in the Fall 2020 collection in brown, but I prefer how this caramel colour is close to her skin-tone for a sultrier, near naked feel.

The brown leather may have been heavier on the eye, and the wet-look effect may not have translated so easily.

Nude Christian Louboutin ‘So Kate’ pumps and the most stunning Bvlgari necklace from the Magnifica collection. completed her look.

I’ll be spending the rest of the year figuring out how I’m going to rearrange my BDOTY list to accommodate Zendaya, Greta Ferro and Dakota Johnson, when Regina King and Tilda Swinton already occupy most of the list.
