See Zendaya's Vintage Mugler Robot Suit for Dune: Part Two

May 2024 · 2 minute read

Zendaya is proving that she has the range during the continent-spanning Dune: Part Two tour. From 'fits that look like high-fashion Louis Vuitton sandworms to swirly soft-serve Alaïa, she's soft, sci-fi, and everything in between. Today may just be the pièce de résistance, however, as we all take a moment to bow at the altar of Law Roach. The stylist supreme gave his girl what may be the most memorable outfit from Mugler's Fall-Winter 1995 couture collection, a robotic bodysuit with shiny, articulated chrome sleeves, gloves, and legs over clear plastic. 

While a model originally carried an airy, sheer cape alongside the look when it first debuted on the runway, Zendaya added a spotlight-stealing diamond necklace to the throwback look, giving the fembot outfit a major dose of glam.

Mugler's 1995 show made history with its casting, which included Carmen Dell’Orifice and Naomi Campbell walking alongside drag queens and adult film stars. In addition to the iconic robot suit, the collection included the motorcycle corset that Lady Gaga wore for her "Paparazzi" music video and a gold robot suit that Beyoncé wore for her "Sweet Dreams" video.

The look continues Zendaya's parade of sci-fi forward looks for Dune: Part Two, which have also included leather suiting, slouchy tailoring, and a custom two-piece look by Torishéju Dumi. The film hits theaters on Mar. 1, so there's still plenty of time for the star to keep showing up and showing out on the red carpet.
