Zendaya and her stylist, Law Roach, may not have invented “method dressing,” but they certainly made the trend the phenomenon that it is today. From her webby Spider-Man looks to her sporty Challengers press tour, Zendaya has always been dressed to theme. Now, with her latest movie—Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey—set to hit theaters on July 17, it seems she’s ready to embrace a dreamy, mythological aesthetic.
This afternoon, the Emmy winner was photographed in New York City trying out a bit of tunic dressing, courtesy of the Khaite Resort 2027 collection. With this look, she could’ve easily passed for a character from Homer’s era, if they only had an eye for high fashion, that is.

For the afternoon out, Zendaya was draped in the Marylore Veil Midi Dress in a satin-silk blend, with a plunging neckline, blouson sleeves, and peplum waist. Like any true Greek heroine, she wore a pair of gold gladiator sandals (hers just happened to be made of crocodile leather and courtesy of Christian Louboutin) and she complemented them with a black cord belt with metallic hardware, along with some elongated golden chain hoop earrings from Fope. (Athena would approve.)

Her new film, The Odyssey, is out on July 17.
Zendaya spent the first few months of the year on a bridal streak to promote The Drama—and also got secretly married herself. Most recently, she wore a string of method fits while promoting Spider-Man: Brand New Day alongside her hubby, Tom Holland.
Now, it seems Zendaya is officially entering her goddess era, and something tells us her fashion won’t disappoint.
