Zendaya Served Three Stunning Looks in One Day for the Paris Premiere of Challengers

A few weeks after presenting Dune: Part II in Paris, Zendaya is back in France for the premiere of Challengers, her new film by Luca Guadagnino, costarring Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist. For her promotional marathon on Saturday April 6, the 27-year-old actor and her stylist, Law Roach, opted for three cutting-edge, elegant outfits by Louis Vuitton.

For the Saturday morning photo call, Zendaya wowed in a coat printed with the house’s iconic checkerboard pattern—specifically, an apple green version from the spring/summer 2013 collection. Since the start of the promotional tour, her stylist has been using this hue as a nod to tennis, the sport at the heart of Challengers. Zendaya also wore a headband, white pumps, and Bulgari jewelry to complete a charming retro look.

A few minutes later, for the film’s press conference, she appeared in a lime-green satin outfit, featuring a matching shirt and pants. Her hair, which had been tied up earlier in the day, was was let loose and styled with a flawless blow-out. The look, from the 1999 archives, was again designed by Marc Jacob for Louis Vuitton.

For her last appearance of the day on the red carpet, Zendaya opted for a change of palette with a white look based around a strong piece: a custom Louis Vuitton ensemble by Nicolas Ghesquière composed of a leather bustier and a chiffon draped skirt, fitted with a wide white leather belt. She also wore a sublime set of Bulgari diamonds, adding a sparkling touch to her divine appearance.

The actor, who unveiled long blonde waves for the occasion, took advantage of the red carpet to sign a few autographs with the moviegoers who had taken over the fan zone at the UGC Normandie cinema by mid-afternoon. One of them even offered her a giant croissant…enough to make her stay in Paris unforgettable.

Challengers will be released in cinemas on April 24. This film details a love triangle centered around Tashi (Zendaya), a tennis prodigy who begins a romantic relationship with two other professional tour players, Art (Mike Faist) and Patrick (Josh O’Connor). After an injury that ends her professional playing career, Tashi marries and becomes Art’s coach, a partnership that descends into chaos when Art and Patrick are forced to play against each other years later.
