Zendaya Shines in Vintage Gold Dress at Rock Hall Induction Ceremony
Zendaya's Glamorous Tribute to Cher
Zendaya brought a dose of megawatt glamour to Cleveland, Ohio, this weekend at the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. It's no secret that the actress loves a bit of method-dressing, and she walked the red carpet at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in a golden naked dress that paid perfect homage to Cher, whom Zendaya had the immense honour of inducting into the Hall of Fame.
“Where do I even begin? Cher is not one person,” Zendaya said. “Her name is just as legendary as her legacy.” For the occasion, Zendaya chose to wear a vintage Bob Mackie design from the couture 2001 collection, 'Foreign Intrigue', which closely resembled a gown Cher wore in 1972, also created by the designer.
Stunning Dress Details
The design featured a twisted halterneck with a completely open bodice, broken by golden straps crisscrossing across her abdomen into a low-rise skirt. The entire dress draped down elegantly to the carpet and included a high slit up the centre.
- The dress was sheer and golden, covered in Art Deco-esque lines.
- Entirely hand-encrusted with small glittering bugle beads and crystals.
Styled by Law Roach, Zendaya paired the striking gown with a snow white silk trench coat, also by Bob Mackie, highlighting a sharp, dramatic collar and shimmery golden accents. Completing her look, she wore pointed gold heels, rosy-hued make-up, and styled her hair in a super-long, straight, Cher-inspired fashion.
