Zendaya Stuns Fans in Bold Red Strapless Minidress for New Shoot
Zendaya is considered a modern fashion icon, and she has once again reminded the world of that, channeling a striking Hollywood siren aesthetic for her latest feature in Interview Magazine.
On February 19, her longtime collaborator and “image architect,” Law Roach, gave fans a glimpse behind the scenes by sharing a captivating out-take on Instagram. The image immediately caught fire online, showcasing the Dune actress in a look that perfectly balanced vintage glamour with contemporary edge.
In the stunning still, Zendaya is seen wearing a chic strapless minidress in a vibrant, high-octane shade of red. Roach emphasized the timeless nature of the ensemble in his caption, describing the star as Elsa Peretti reincarnated, a nod to the legendary jewelry designer known for her sleek and sculptural aesthetic.
The choice of color and silhouette provided a bold energy that many fans described as “siren-coded,” a term often used to define a look that is both alluring and commanding. To round out the ensemble, Zendaya opted for a pair of sparkly, open-toed heels that added a touch of classic red-carpet shimmer.
The styling was elevated further by a pair of dramatic, oversized sunglasses and a deep red lip that perfectly matched her dress. This latest appearance reinforces the powerful creative synergy between Zendaya and Roach, who have consistently used fashion to tell stories and pay homage to style legends throughout her career.
While she continues to dominate the fashion world, Zendaya is currently preparing for what many are calling her biggest professional year yet. As of February, she is gearing up for a staggering five major releases. Most notably, the third season of her hit HBO series Euphoria is scheduled to premiere on April 13.
This new chapter will feature a significant time jump, following her character, Rue Bennett, as she navigates the complexities of adulthood beyond her high school years. On the big screen, Zendaya is set to star alongside Robert Pattinson in the A24 romantic drama The Drama, which hits theaters on April 3.
Fans of her blockbuster work also have much to look forward to this summer; she will appear as Athena in Christopher Nolan’s epic The Odyssey on July 17, followed by her return as MJ in Spider-Man: Brand New Day on July 31. To close out the year, she will return to Arrakis as Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Three (also known as Dune: Messiah), which is slated for a December 18 release.
Amidst this relentless work schedule, Zendaya’s personal life has also been making headlines. Just this week, she sparked intense marriage rumors with fiancé Tom Holland after she was photographed in Beverly Hills wearing a simple gold band on her ring finger.
While the couple—who confirmed their engagement at the 2025 Golden Globes—has not officially commented, fans are speculating that they may have quietly tied the knot. Whether she is walking a red carpet in Milan or filming her next epic, Zendaya remains the undisputed center of the entertainment universe.
