AceShowbiz - Zendaya Coleman has shared her experience wearing the iconic 1995 Thierry Mugler robot suit for the premiere of "Dune: Part Two". The actress revealed that the metal construction of the suit caused her to feel "immediately lightheaded" after wearing it for just 10 minutes.
"The metal conducts and holds onto heat very quickly and traps it in," she explained. "I'm wearing a complete bodysuit, so there's a barrier, so you already have a layer of material on your skin."
Despite the discomfort, Zendaya pushed through and wore the suit on the red carpet. She described the moment as "meant to be," as one of the original creators of the suit was present at her fitting and ensured a perfect fit.
The Mugler suit was one of many daring looks Zendaya wore during the press tour for "Dune: Part Two." She has become known for her bold fashion choices, inspired by the characters she plays in movies.
While promoting her new film "Challengers", Zendaya embraced tennis-inspired attire. She debuted a dazzling white gown adorned with embroidered tennis racquets and a chic black cowl neck Mugler gown.
Zendaya's red carpet looks are constantly evolving, and she is set to impress again at the 2024 Met Gala. As one of the celebrity co-chairs, she will no doubt deliver another unforgettable fashion moment inspired by the "The Garden of Time" dress code.
