LONDON (AP) 鈥 is on a fashion roll, in a cyborg 鈥淒une: Part Two鈥 kind of way.
The co-star of the stunned Thursday at its world premiere when she hit the sand-strewn carpet in a silver robot suit straight from the archive of Mugler. It鈥檚 from the French fashion house鈥檚 fall/winter 1995 鈥淐irque d鈥檋iver鈥 20th anniversary collection, according to a company statement.
That translates to 鈥淲inter Circus,鈥 not unlike the fanfare surrounding the March 1 release of Denis Villeneuve鈥檚 second half of .
Zendaya's body-hugging armor outfit with sheer plexiglass inserts has built-in gloves she paired with matching silver heels. Mugler gave special thanks to her stylist, Law Roach, in an email detailing the vintage look. While the runway version included a matching headpiece, Zendaya opted for a short sleek hairdo and a blue diamond necklace from Bulgari.
She was joined on the carpet by fellow stars Timoth茅e Chalamet, Josh Brolin and Rebecca Ferguson, along with new cast members Austin Butler, Florence Pugh and Villeneuve.
The new film picks up where 2021鈥檚 鈥淒une鈥 left off. Chalamet鈥檚 Paul Atreides unites with Zendaya's Chani and the Fremen in order to seek revenge against those who killed his family members. Pugh, a newcomer to the world of 鈥淒une鈥 as the Emperor鈥檚 daughter, plays Princess Irulan with Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha.
Stellan Skarsgard, Christopher Walken, Charlotte Rampling and Javier Bardem round out the cast.
