Along with Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Anna Wintour, Zendaya will co-chair the May 6 event, which has the theme “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”
Zendaya to Co-Chair the 2024 Met Gala: Revisit Her Most Iconic Looks
The Costume Institute is curating and organizing an exhibition theme at the Metropolitan Museum of Art that will include 250 pieces from their permanent collection. The event will present some of the most remarkable looks and most outrageous designs that fashion enthusiasts will likely see this year.
In celebration of Zendaya’s return to the Met Gala as a co-chair, ET is glancing back in time at her past head-turning, jaw-dropping Met Gala looks.
The actress made her Met Gala debut when she was 18, and wore a striking Fausto Puglisi gown, featuring the red and black color scheme that was prominent at the event, due to the theme, as well as some stunning sun design embellishments on the skirt.
Zendaya complimented the dress with a golden tiara covered in smaller suns, bringing a cohesiveness to the look that really made it stand out among the year’s many stellar ensembles.
For the high-concept, high-tech-inspired theme, Zendaya opted for a retro-futuristic off-the-shoulder metallic gown, designed by Michael Kors, along with some Jorge Adeler rings.
Pairing the bronze dress with the quasi-sci-fi hairstyle, the actress seemed to radiate the art deco futurism of Fritz Lang’s Metropolis.
For her third outing at the iconic event, Zendaya stole the spotlight in a bright, colorful Dolce & Gabbana gown, which featured a tropical parrot print and was a true work of art.
The theme for the 2017 Met Gala celebrated the avant-garde work of Japanese designer Rei Kawakubo, and while there was some debate over how well Zendaya’s look fits the theme, there was no disagreement that she looked effortlessly flawless in the eye-catching gown.
Zendaya embraced the religious iconography theme and added a bit of warrior legend to it with this Atelier Versace chainmail-inspired gown meant to evoke the strength and spirit of Joan of Arc.
Zendaya arrived at the 2019 Met Gala wearing a (literal) glowing gown, inspired by Cinderella. The stunning Tommy Hilfiger dress shimmered in shades of silver and light blue and appeared to light up in the dark.
Zendaya styled her hair up just like the Disney princess and clutched an adorable purse shaped like the pumpkin coach from the popular fairy tale.
The star-studded Met Gala, also known as The Costume Institute Benefit, will be held on May 6, 2024. Each year, the Met Gala serves as the primary source of funding for the Costume Institute’s operating budget
