Zendaya wearing a custom sparkly Challengers dress by Celia Kritharioti with matching bedazzled white pumps. I guess the press tour is ending as the movie premieres on 26/4 so this is a great way to close this amazing fashion show :D

pics from Law Roach's insta

The design is referencing the movie poster - obviously:D

Loewe recreated the day/activities when JFK Jr. Was wearing the "I Told Ya"-shirt for their campaign? Or just as a drop of Challengers inspired clothing cause Jonathan Anderson was the costume designer?

The challenger costars on the cover of Variety, styled by Law Roach.

Zendaya is wearing a look from Louis Vuitton's Resort 2024 collection, paired with Bulgari jewellery and her classic white Louboutin heels.

I guess the ribbon is supposed to be from the tennis net but it reads more like rhythmic gymnastics :D!

Zendaya in a street style look to go to a special screening of her movie Challengers.

The "I told ya"-Shirt Zendaya is seen wearing is also worn by her character Tashi in the movie. Jonathan Anderson, the costume designer for the movie and head of Loewe and J.W.Anderson, and Josh O'Connor the costar in the movie were also seen sporting this short for the press tour.

It is a reference to JFK Jr. (JFK's son or "John John") wearing a shirt that said "I told ya" while playing frisbee...it seems to be unclear as to what his shirt is referring to or if it was just a shirt in the end...

Jonathan Anderson is really good at telling the movie story through design and creating iconic looks - here referencing the filming location and time.

Zendaya in a pastel pink custom Jacquemus two piece set for a press event in LA for her movie Challengers... Besides the polo shirt that gives tennis, it gives pastel Barbie vibes: D it's cute and cool at the same time, just not my cup of tea :)

Zendaya's look for the appearance on Jimmy Kimmel in Ralph Lauren Spring Summer 1992 (and her beloved white Louboutins) is peak corporate chic, office siren or #corpcore :D it's cool and timeless but still on the more feminine side with the short skirt while borrowing the tie and pocket sqaure from classic men's suits.

Also check out Mina Le's latest video on exactly this trend:

Zendaya and Law are always on trend :)

Ok, finally finished watching Killing Eve, don't know why it took me so long and why I watched the first season two times but never the rest....

Besides that it is the best season!!!!

I am devastated - why does it end like that??? It feels so rushed like the last episode didn't feel like a last episode?!?! 😭😭

Zendaya in a striped black and white Carolina Herrera gown for her Challengers press tour. Like her and Law's tribute to Althea Gibson, this a nod to two tennis legends: Serena and Venus Williams! Whereas her other looks were obvious references to her movie these are more subtle ones, or at least when you are not a Williams sister fan or fashion history aficionado :) Venus was also present at the LA premiere.

Wes Gordon, chef designer at Carolina Herrera, revived the gown with some modern updates, apparently. Zendaya even completed the look with her hair in braids with white pearls (but it's a wig, assuming from the photo credits), just like the sisters!
