Zendaya was a showstopper at the recent premiere of Dune: Part Two in London. Known for her unique sartorial style, the actress proved to be an artist herself when she opted to wear a chrome bodysuit pulled from the 1995 Mugler Couture collection.

The futuristic look suited the occasion and how. Zendaya’s Mugler outfit featured shiny sleeves, gloves and pants over clear plastic. She paired the outfit with a heavy diamond necklace.
The clothes came from the original Autumn/Winter show, which Vogue said was “memorable more for its James Brown appearance; portraits of him by the likes of Tippi Hedren, Patty Hearst and Veruschka; and his rather liberal use of fetish latex.” The collection has been described as “a terrifying and thrilling picture for the dawn of the internet age, and a fitting end to this list of the most unforgettable fashion shows of the 1990s”.
As Zendaya debuted her most daring and futuristic look yet in a vintage Mugler robot costume from 1995, fans wondered how she would sit or go about her business if she had to go to the bathroom. Many even wondered if it was comfortable on the inside and if the dress had a cotton lining so that her skin wouldn’t hurt.
While Zendaya’s look stood out, others also looked like they were dressed to impress. Dune: Part Two stars Austin Butler and Florence Pugh alongside OG cast members Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya. Other stars cast in Dune 2 include Josh Brolin, Léa Seydoux, Rebecca Ferguson, Souheiler Yacoub, Stellan Skarsgård and Anya Taylor-Joy.
