Zendaya's Joan of Arc Met Gala Moment: A Fashion Icon's Heavenly Look

Zendaya's Heavenly Armor: A Look Back at Her Iconic 2018 Met Gala Versace Gown The 2018 Met Gala, themed "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination," saw many stunning looks. However, Zendaya's custom Versace gown stands out as a particularly memorable moment. Inspired by Joan of Arc, the silver chainmail-inspired dress was a bold choice that perfectly captured the event's theme. Zendaya herself has described the dress as "heavy" due to its intricate beading, yet also "beautifully constructed." The gown's design, coupled with Zendaya's fiery red hair, created a striking and unforgettable image. This choice reflects not only Zendaya's fashion sense but also her willingness to embrace a powerful and historical figure as inspiration. The dress remains a testament to the intersection of fashion, history, and religious imagery.
