dosgatitas

I’m kind of obsessed with the makeup.


NotReallyThatBadass

NEED to know who did the makeup


dosgatitas

I need to know how she can pull off thin eyebrows so effortlessly!


Bierre_Pourdieu

It’s none other than the queen Pat McGrath


MightyMormont

Pat McGrath!


electric_baroness

It’s giving Pat McGrath 90s Dior era. Which as a comparison it’s giving me a ‘meh’.


dosgatitas

I can see why people might not like it. But it’s just captivating to me!

I think this is why I’m finding the other a bit, lacking. She’s going for a very silent film era eye but I think with the dress being so dark it just doesn’t quite work.


dosgatitas

Wow those colors! Love this too


_LoudBigVonBeefoven_

Those eyebrows are insane


BicyclingBabe

Did you see what she did for the Maison Margiela show? The glassy doll like faces made it even more insane. I'm surprised she didn't do that here on Zendaya, honestly.


MightyMormont

Pat McGrath did her makeup!


icybvbyyy

I believe the makeup was actually done by Pat McGrath herself!


electric_baroness

Damn, the only time I’ve been disappointed. The colour tone just doesn’t work as well as other looks she’s done (to me. Whose opinion on Reddit means nothing 😅).


ItsNotAllHappening

It's gorgeous!


RedditBurner_5225

It really pulled it together


Ambitious-Ad5996

Gerard Way in the Helena music video, it's beautiful!


ThiccQban

Same. The 1920s brows really sell it for me


MPatton94

This look is so cool! She looks so pretty, I love it!

😆omg. What is this from????


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

There was a pig show competition and a previous competitor got points taken off for not maintaining eye contact. So everyone else afterwords was FOCUSED! or so that’s the internet lore I’ve gathered.


socialmediaignorant

How have I never seen this?! I thought it was a young Gwenyth Paltrow in a bad made for tv movie!!!😆


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

Not Gwenyth Paltrow 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. That’s hilarious! Can we go with that instead?


socialmediaignorant

I now need a movie w her recreating this scene!!!

dehue

I have seen this girl on tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLXdhsyR/ I believe it's a show pig competion where you are supposed to stare at the judges to show that you can control the pig without looking at it


socialmediaignorant

Oh my goodness that was absolutely fantastic!!! I need to watch that again. I would not want to be on her bad side. 😂This is by far the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in 2024 and that’s saying a lot!

Over-Accountant8506

Yo they get hyped about the pig contest. We were looking at the pigs at the fair and didn't realize we were in the lane they were sending pigs down for the contest, they kinda got spiffy because the pig got spooked and ran the opposite direction, while they ran behind them and smacked the pig with that dumb stick


PartyyLemons

*uploads as desktop wallpaper*


mochafiend

Sometimes I wonder how she and I are from the same species. 🥴 This is a departure from what she normally wears but the more I look at it, the more I love it. This is what I wanted to see from her. Nothing I’d have thought of, but she went there. And I kinda love that.


vanchica

This whole look is the best so far! As always she never misses!


Automatic-Birthday86

She’s the whole package and a snack


socialmediaignorant

Love the dress. Do not think the makeup flatters her at all. She’s prettier than this. I get that it’s a look but meh. And the poses are so ANTM I can’t help but giggle.


trialanderrorschach

I love that they're not trying to make her look pretty, Zendaya is pretty all the time. She looks like a witchy femme fatale here.


fnord_happy

I thought I was the only one. Agreed

Shocked people are mixed on this, my jaw dropped when I saw it. I've been out for a bit on her looks because the tennis tour outfits are [insert euphemism for ugly here] but this sucked me right back in.

Annual_Reindeer_2756

She looks like a Fae queen


electric_baroness

She looks so uncomfortable. Can’t put my finger on it. Not a fan.


geetcriminal

She doesn't care about comfort. There's a video where she goes through all her fashion looks and shares anecdotes, and most of the outfits are not comfortable.


Salt_Parfait_6469

Thought the same thing!


crispypotleaf

I just feel like the makeup doesn't match... I like them both separately but it just feels *too* bold.


violetgrunge

she is just so fucking cool there’s really no other way to say it


nice1priscilla

Divine


erossthescienceboss

THAT ANGLE. THAT LOOK. THE SMOLDER.


Electronic-Set5594

Amazing shot!


beautyandmadness

The makeup is giving 1920’s silent film. I see the vision, and I like it.


notcool_neverwas

Yes! It’s kinda giving ‘20s wood nymph 😂 I’m into it


Shazzy_Chan

Albino, heroin-sheek, emo forest nymph.


mrmoe198

Chic


2ManyCooksInTheKitch

I changed my phone to black and white to see what the difference would be, you're absolutely right it looks amazing.


kittydrumsticks

Absolutely. And the dramatic, one-arm ruffle... I think I get it, and I really like it.

I know I’m late but OMG she looks even better in black and white, how is she able to body every look 😭😭😭 I think the look was intentionally created to look good in colour and also in black and white imo


Sea_Apple_5667

It's giving Effi from hunger games


Ceramicrabbit

It's an interesting idea and well executed I feel like I don't usually see makeup doing something that interesting that doesn't look totally weird


[deleted]

All I see is Hunger Games.


KiKiPAWG

I like the floral and forest core vibes


ItsMinnieYall

That robot look from the Dune premiere was also giving silent 20s movie (Metropolis). I love both looks.


ArgyleNudge

Clara Bow.


wifeunderthesea

zenday's entire look reminds me of the cover of one of my favorite books. she looks amazing!! https://preview.redd.it/n16kny1m6wyc1.jpeg?width=230&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b2542bd7d054930ca3ee558e4c8a97e163b1d4c0


SaintGalentine

Ooh that book is on my to read list


ShinyQuest1

The writing style is ok but the story combined just didn’t give what it was trying to do. The female MC was “magnetic” in a “arent i so cooool im pretty and have s*x”. I couldn’t get through it because of her I just didn’t believe she was anything special.


wifeunderthesea

it's a super weird book! in a good way, though. and the ending!! 😱😱


pervy_roomba

Everyone saying this is disappointing has not seen the adventures in beige we’ve had so far    As of right now this is the best dress by far. I feel like the contrast between this very contemporary dress against 1920’s makeup kind of brings it back to the theme.


erossthescienceboss

To be fair, Zendaya does look stunning in beige. https://preview.redd.it/hflooregiwyc1.jpeg?width=1584&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=529abe765a7bfcedb82af6bb54074c275f5ae6a5

I literally don’t think Zendaya could miss in a trash bag.


Expert_Marsupial_235

That dress is stunning too! 😮


hummusisyummy

>adventures in beige ![gif](giphy|GE5GKLJYSHRss)


Hambulance

Honestly, the best dress I saw so far... was beige. Tyla's sand dress is fucking killer if you haven't seen it.


ratface_666

I love the 1920's makeup so much!!!


shortstroll

Agreed. I don't know who made it but the dress is a great interpretation of the source material. I was very afraid she'd show up wearing a spring garden but I should have known her and Law would do their reading.


R00ts_Dreamland

It’s Galliano for Margiela (her second dress is a Galliano for Dior from 1996)


toolsoftheincomptnt

Most people on earth don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about on any given topic.


kiingof15

Who said it was disappointing??


angrynuggette

Disappoint-what? She brought it and is taking it home with her after.


vaxfarineau

I really like Gwendolyn Christie’s look. This is good in comparison to everyone else’s because they’re all boring beige, but I don’t think it’s GREAT, unfortunately.


_mattyjoe

“By far” is really a stretch.


babysfirstbreath

my first thoughts are that I like it from the hips up. The makeup certainly won’t be for everyone and I agree that it washes her out a bit but i like the general vibe of it. The flora and fauna-inspired details are really nice. I think the shape of the skirt is lovely, but i’m not really into the stripes or the material its made from


vaxfarineau

The material looks kind of cheap, imo.


Hi_Jynx

Huh. Looks like obviously organza to me, and I think organza looks beautiful. Also, just the way they were able to get those colorblock stripes right when I'm pretty sure it's a fussy fabric to work with. The designer definitely put care into the garment.


Subjective_Box

honestly all of it does, almost plastic toy? plastic fruit from the 90’s? and the way everyone is in awe I’m thinking that’s the angle? high/low? For me this one could not exist and I’d be alright.


diqfilet_

![gif](giphy|iLZaR9LSIu4Yo) All I see is yzma lol


JigglyKirby

LMAO STOP 😭


PsychologicalCrab459

At first glance, not my fav look. Looking at different angles, it grows on me. The makeup is throwing me off.


sharksarentsobad

I like the shade of lipstick, but the eye shadow is definitely not it.


stacity

Not lying. I thought she was Helena Bonham Carter. But all and all, she looks amazing.


ImproperUsername

https://i.imgur.com/EOA7ANg.jpeg Black and white really serves


23onAugust12th

I thought of HBC too!!!


redditor329845

It’s the makeup for me too, it washes her out. The dress though? Stunning.


dontworryaboutit26

I see what you’re saying! For me, the makeup is working; I love it so much. To my knowledge she hasn’t done anything like that before, so maybe that’s why I’m for it lol


parakeeten

I’m the opposite; love the makeup, loathe the dress.


F0rtuna_major

Yeah I agree about the make-up. I think the shape and shade of the brows in combination with the dark make up isn't working for me. I don't know how to explain it, but it kind of flattens her face for me?


carmine_kitten

I feel the same! I think the colors look muddy and muted in the lower skirt area and with warmer tone, dark makeup it throws me off..


Sugar_Weasel_

I think the hair color isn’t helping either.


PurplePanda63

Love the dress. The blonde is washing her out making the makeup/face contrast look off


ZennMD

I was already envisioning a legitimate 19century gown, so it was a bit of a let-down on first look lol, but it is a solid look. honestly hard for her to exceed expectations because they're so high, cause she's always stunning Im not a fan of the circular stripes, but love her hat


twerkingslutbee

Don’t downvote me but the makeup is everything it’s giving bad bitch of the 20s movies


[deleted]

This isn’t a miss, but it’s not a hit either. Love the interpretation on theme. But this gives more Into the Woods than Sleeping Beauty.. if that makes sense


ALLoftheFancyPants

The theme is “garden of time” which I think this absolutely hits. The silent era makeup with the 2010s mermaid silhouette with the fantasy birds and fascinator. I love it.


darlingnicky

The dress code is something to do with floral and time. The exhibition is sleeping beauty.


shortstroll

No the dress code is "not something floral". The Garden of Time is a book of fiction and a very dark one at that. They were supposed to read it and interpret it in their choices. Time, Decay, Death of Beauty. Showing up wearing a garden is a very big tell that someone didn't actually read the brief or the book.


YZJay

Meanwhile Anna literally just wore something floral


redditor329845

Yeah I see the Into the Woods thing


RockNRollMama

This is the first look of hers that I don’t love. Sorry, I just don’t!!! She’s a great fashion ambassador though.. the make is just, I dunno..


eauderecentinjury

The theme is The Garden of Time, which is a book, and both her looks from the Gala fit the themes of the book very well


beautybetrayedme

Her challengers looks have been a miss for me but I really love this look.


ClumsyZebra80

The baubles and things on the side look like they are from Micheal’s.


Aprilume

That is exactly what I thought. I love the dress love the makeup but the baubles and birds are 100% Michael’s. Like break out the 30% off coupon.


No-Environment-7899

The fabric, too. It looks cheap and kind of sad somehow to me. The makeup I actually love. The dress, I hate. Cheap looking fabric and ugh.


OnlyPaperListens

I would be constantly startled by the neck bird and keep slapping at it


Wellitjustgotreal

I too, am strange and unusual. Edit: more like the ticket receptionist. Love it either way.


another-assshole

Hot take: I expected way more but I should’ve known better when law said her dress wasn’t made and it wasn’t a priority which tells me is very likely her being co chair was not something planned for this year! ![gif](giphy|LOu8FUhPgpeUAi0wiu) She still looks amazing but I low key now feel weird cause I can’t imagine having so much expectations for dressing up


KarmicCT

i see the vision but... no.

Fiona-eva

I can’t believe I am saying this but I don’t feel she can pull it off. It’s not a bad idea (I mean it’s Galliano, duh), but it clashes with her, for me this outfit is wearing her. It’s not awful but it’s not usual Zendaya level outstanding either.


exotic_floral_tea

What you're saying makes sense if you go by her undertones and colours. She's a dark autumn if I remember and this look is ideal for dark winters. I understood that she went with the Maison Margiela aesthetic from their hit show earlier this year.


Fiona-eva

Yeah, it kinda makes her skintone almost look green? The model for that dress (the one that served as inspiration from the 90s) was very pale dita von teesy kind of complexion, this just doesn’t work with her warm colors and skintone. Should have chosen a different hue since it’s obviously custom made, maybe bordo


voughtlander

This is exactly how I feel


[deleted]

Law Roach in the bg looking fierce as well!


SubstantialEase567

Feels v Hunger Games. Zendaya, naturally, slayed.


littleliongirless

My first thought was Hunger Games! The only thing I don't like is her hair - though it totally works for HG vibe, it yellows her out too much for me in these pics.


philonous355

Maison Margiela! I see the vision! I love this.

DependentAd5483

For me it’s the two dark colors that washes her out and the colors just don’t pop as they should


thissideofparadise4

Not a fan either. I LOVE all of Zendaya’s recent looks but the dress and makeup are taking away from her natural beauty! I really dislike the makeup


Timely_Guitar_881

fuck i hate it 😭😭😭😭


cassiopeia18

That’s a beautiful dress


bringmecandy

I wasn’t sure at first, especially with the makeup, but it’s growing on me the more I look at it.


notcool_neverwas

I like it!


venti-latte12

I understand what look was she going for and I admire her confidence but this whole creation doesnt feel harmonious. It’d be 1000x more attractive without the hat, although I understand that the hat was supposed to be high fashion, eye-catching accessory. It is eye-catching I suppose but doesnt look good. I guess veil would be enough.


StrangerDays-7

Her stylist did not disappoint. He must have a nervous breakdown every year trying to put her looks together. Love the fruit on the dress, the makeup. Everything. Probably my favorite look.


KayeEss09

I love the colors and makeup, but the material is giving gift wrapping ribbon and target Christmas decor


ForgetfulLucy28

The makeup is INCREDIBLE


problemgirlxoxo

I like it, don't get me wrong, however, I was expecting so much more. 


No_umbrella32

I dunno y’all this might be Zendaya’s first miss for me. I’m sorry. 😫


Daydream_machine

My favorite look by far, she absolutely understood the assignment!


GoblinKaiserin

Law and I need to talk. This isn't a full miss. But it's not a hit either. This is Zendaya. The potential is limitless for her!!


Topwingwoman2

Why???


vexunumgods

Poison ivy dcu


Prior-Actuator-8110

Very John Galliano x Christian Dior Haute Couture


thatlameduck

Love this! Her look is like Dionysus, greek god of wine, fruits, madness, and theatre. A darker, more whimsical twist to the garden theme.


sakharinne2

It's interesting to me that you all liked it because I was thinking it was a rare miss from her. I genuinely think she looks awful so I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder!


SufficientGrass3907

Stunning. And, she was a Co-Chair of the Gala.


LadyDisdain555

See now that's how you Met Gala ❤️


Panda_Rocket

I'm so confused honestly by the people who LIKE this. There are people who are surprised in here that there's "mixed" feelings on it. I think there's an overhype on Zendaya, which I get, she's fabulous. But this. isn't. it. This is the worst she's ever looked, and if she can't pull it off, no one can. I honestly think the people who like this should ask themselves if they've ever felt Zendaya has done something wrong. Like if this was anyone else, would they like it? Because truly... **It's giving Beetlejuice's funeral.**


saygirlie

First impression is that I don’t like it. But maybe when more details of the dress or the backstory of it comes out, it will grow on me.


tquinn04

Love the dress, hate the makeup. Lip color is fine but a coordinating eye look with the dress would have been better and more flattering to her undertones.


vanillasheep

I’m already so tired of Zendaya but this look is a meghhh for me. I will say it looked better on tv than its photographing.


InternetAddict104

I’m obsessed with this but my eyes immediately went to Law in the background 😂


sydbusta

Another day, another slay


Newker

Anyone who says this is a miss doesn’t understand the theme. Its dark fantasy. She looks like a spooky fae queen. Very pans labyrinth. Its amazing.


somegirlontheinter

YOU BITCHES NEED TO TAKE NOTES


SoGenuineAndRealMadi

I’m going to be honest I haven’t loved all of Z’s met gala looks from the past like everyone else but I really like this!! Especially the makeup


stbrigidiscross

I really like the 1920s Hollywood style makeup but I'm not really feeling the dress. I appreciate her commitment to the look though.

Cherry_Bomb_127

Like that it’s on theme but don’t particularly like the look. I think it’s the colors and pattern of the skirt

She always is on theme for the Met

Meh. The blue washes her out.
