Zendaya paid tribute to the “Dune: Part Two” sci-fi theme at the film’s London premiere, donning Thierry Mugler’s legendary robot ensemble from the fall/winter 1995-1996 collection.
On February 15, at Leicester Square, the 27-year-old actress graced the red carpet in the metallic, futuristic attire crafted by the iconic French designer, embodying a modern cyborg aesthetic with silver metal armour paired with bold plastic cutouts.
The Mugler brand highlighted Zendaya’s appearance on Instagram, noting her choice of the silver robot outfit from the ‘Cirque d’hiver’ 20th anniversary collection for the “Dune Part 2” London Premiere, crediting celebrity stylist Law Roach for the selection.
Fashion aficionados celebrated the revival of a signature Thierry Mugler look by Zendaya, commemorating the designer who passed away in January 2022 at 73.
Social media reactions praised the moment as a monumental fashion event, with one user on X exclaiming the historical significance of Zendaya wearing the original haute couture robot suit from Mugler’s archives.
Zendaya’s choice of attire has consistently captured public attention, with her role as Chani in “Dune: Part Two” influencing her thematic wardrobe selections. Her recent fashion statements include a white Alaïa dress worn at a Paris photocall on February 12 and a vibrant custom dress by Torishéju Dumi for a Mexico City event earlier in the month, further cementing her status as a fashion icon.
