Zendaya Pays Sartorial Tribute to Carrie Bradshaw at the 'Challengers' Photo-Call in London

Some saw a Carrie Bradshaw reference, and others interpreted Zendaya’s latest Challengers press tour look as a nod to Space Jam’s Lola Bunny. (Zendaya even voiced Lola in Space Jam 2.) What cannot be disputed is that Zendaya and her stylist Law Roach put a summer twist on her daytime look for the film’s photo-call in London.

Roach chose a vintage Vivienne Westwood look from the line’s spring/summer 1994 collection, consisting of a rainbow vest and a miniskirt with a white feather tail attached to it. Zendaya’s hair was styled in a blonde ponytail. She added blunt bangs to complete the look beauty-wise. She accessorized with Bulgari jewelry.

Roach confirmed the look was partly inspired by Sex and the City’s Carrie Bradshaw on Instagram. He included a reference image of Carrie in a green skirt with the same white tail on his Instagram Story.

If I have an opportunity where he can come with me, he’s always going to be there.
