Zendaya rocks the red carpet in sizzling Spiderman chic
There's dressing appropriately, and then there's going full Zendaya and dressing for the theme of the movie premiere you're attending.
As Marvel's latest epic, Spiderman: No Way Home launched in Los Angeles, its star Zendaya accompanied her partner and co-star Tom Holland on the red carpet, dressed in a show-stopping, web-inspired dress, complete with a jewelled lace eye-mask.
Zendaya is becoming a gold-plated fashion icon with consistently edgy-but-elegant turns on the red carpet, but this outfit was one of her best yet.
The nude, plunging gown was decorated with jewelled spiderwebs, while her Spidey-style embellished mask and Bvlgari jewellery added a chic twist on the theme.
She and Holland appeared together in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and 2019’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, and reprise their roles in the latest instalment; Spider-Man: No Way Home.
“Something that I really appreciated about being on this movie that I didn’t on other movies was, I spent so much more time on set, even on the days when I wasn’t shooting,” Zendaya told Digital Spy.
“I’ve always loved directing and Jon [Watts] is so cool, he’s totally fine with having me being around and watching. I wish I would have asked a little bit earlier to come watch and ask questions and learn.
“I would have told myself, ‘Don’t be so shy, get in there, go ask, go sit and watch’ because I’m always too shy and just feel like an idiot: ‘I don’t want to be in the way, sorry!’”

Asked what he would have done differently during filming, Holland joked, "There maybe would have been a few weekend shoots that I might have said no to, now that I know that you’re allowed to do that.”
The pair also laughed about not being invited to an on-set 'dance party' hosted by co-star Jamie Foxx.

"He would bring music and then the lighting department would play lights as well," Zendaya added.
"Yeah, that was rude," Holland said. "I wasn't even invited, and I was Spider-Man in the 'Spider-Man' movie."
During the press tour, Zendaya's outfits have been widely admired, with her sharp pink suit from Alexander McQueen's S/S '22 collection garnering accolades from Vogue.
She also wore the label for the Spiderman photocall in London, with glittering black tights and a jewel-encrusted jacket.
Not surprisingly, the actress is the youngest ever recipient of the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) fashion award and was presented with the honour by ceremony host Emily Blunt in November.
Zendaya's recent appearances alongside Tom Holland have delighted fans.The pair, both 25, smiled and embraced on the red carpet, having made their relationship public after years of rumours.

In July, they were photographed kissing, and finally talked about their romance to GQ Magazine in November.
Holland admitted that the couple “love each other very much,” but went on to say that they hoped to keep the relationship as private as possible.
“I’ve always been really adamant to keep my private life private because I share so much of my life with the world anyway,” he said. “We sort of felt robbed of our privacy. I don’t think it’s about not being ready – it’s just that we didn’t want to [talk about it publicly].”
“It was quite strange and weird and confusing and invasive," Zendaya agreed. "The equal sentiment is that when you really love and care about somebody, some moments or things, you wish were your own.”
