Zendaya just hit the red carpet for the London premiere of Dune 2 in an outfit so epic, so fantastic, we honestly don't know how she'll top it.
The actor has been giving us an absolute plethora of fashion inspiration this year, but the archival vintage Thierry Mugler suit of armor she donned in London may be the best look yet, if not ever. As noted by her stylist Law Roach, the suit was from the fall-winter 1995-96 couture collection, and to say it's stunning is an understatement.
The futuristic suit is a shiny silver reminiscent of a classic knight's suit of armor but with strategically placed cutouts on the arms, chest, midriff, and thigh in the front and on her butt, knees, and calves in the back. The bodice looks like metal, while the pants are so shiny and so perfectly fitted to her legs that they look almost like liquid chrome. The suit also featured matching gloves made of the same molten silver metal.
Over the extra-high neckline, which came all the way up to her chin, she wore a gorgeous glittering diamond and sapphire necklace (from Bulgari, since she's an ambassador for the brand). The finishing touch was a pair of silver platform shoes with cutouts that mimicked those on the suit.
The model on the runway at the couture show wore a matching helmet, but Zendaya skipped that in favor of a wet-look low bun and glowing, lit-from-within skin with a subtle contour, bold brow, and neutral glossy lip.
There's been no shortage of absolutely incredible fashion moments from Zendaya over the years — the Met Gala Cinderella dress and Joan of Arc-esque chainmail come to mind, among many, many others — but we have a feeling this one will go down in the history books as one of her best of all time. We're honestly speechless, and we would definitely follow this gorgeous knight into battle.
