Zendaya is gearing up for her return to the Met Gala, and she’s feeling a mix of emotions as she prepares for the prestigious event. The actress, who will serve as a co-chair for the annual event in New York, recently reflected on her past appearances at the Met Gala.
Zendaya, now 27, first attended the Met Gala when she was just 18 years old. She described the experience as exciting yet terrifying, especially the daunting task of walking up the iconic steps. After a hiatus of four or five years, Zendaya is excited to make her comeback at the Met Gala.
For this year’s Met Gala, themed “The Garden of Time,” Zendaya will be working with her longtime stylist, Law Roach, to create a special look. The theme, inspired by J.G. Ballard’s short story, aims to capture the essence of fleeting beauty through fashion.
In a recent interview, Zendaya revealed that she and her stylist have been hard at work finalizing their ideas for the event. She also hinted that her “Challengers” co-stars and costume designer Jonathan Anderson will be attending the gala as well.
Zendaya has always had a strong point of view when it comes to fashion and sees it as a fun way to express herself. From her debut in a custom Fausto Puglisi dress to her Cinderella-inspired Tommy Hilfiger ballgown in 2019, Zendaya has always made a statement on the Met Gala red carpet.
As she prepares for her return to the Met Gala, Zendaya is looking forward to embodying different characters through her fashion choices and continuing her creative journey in the world of high fashion.
