Zendaya (2019)

Zendaya, at the 2019 Met Gala, truly embodied the event’s theme of “Camp: Notes on Fashion” with a spectacular, Cinderella-inspired gown designed by Tommy Hilfiger. Her dress was not merely a garment but a performance piece that included a magical transformation complete with a light-up feature, making her glow literally and figuratively on the red carpet. This gown, embellished with hundreds of LED lights, transitioned from a muted gray to a vibrant, illuminated blue, capturing the essence of the beloved fairy tale character Cinderella. Zendaya’s dedication to her red carpet appearances, combined with her willingness to immerse herself fully in the theme of the event, made this look a standout moment. The dress was a testament to her status as a fashion-forward icon and an actress who uses her platform to push the boundaries of traditional red carpet attire, merging technology, storytelling, and fashion into one unforgettable presentation.
