Zendaya Reached Out To Anna Sawai After Matching At The 2025 Met Gala
Zendaya and Anna Sawai generated many a fashion headline last week when they both appeared at the 2025 Met Gala in near-identical outfits. While Zendaya appeared at the event in a sleek white suit and wide-brimmed hat ensemble by Louis Vuitton, first-time Met attendee Sawai made her appearance not long after in an uncannily similar look by Christian Dior.
Cameras captured Law Roach—Zendaya's stylist and frequent collaborator—reacting to Sawai's entrance in real time at the gala.
'I am dying 'cause she's got on Zendaya's look,' he said to an interviewer. 'I'm so glad we came early.'
A week later, Roach revealed that there was no ill will on either side and provided some insight into the inspiration behind both looks. NEW YORK, NY – APRIL 23: Law Roach and Zendaya on April 23, 2024 in New York City. (Photo by Jason Howard/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images)
'I think people thought there was some kind of disappointment on our end,' said the stylist. 'It was two people paying homage to two different people: Yoko [Ono] being Anna's inspiration and Diana [Ross] and Bianca [Jagger] being ours.'
He went on to express disappointment at the two women being pitted against each other by some commentators.
'It just happened,' he noted. 'They both looked great, and they're both beautiful women. I mean, I hate the way that people try to pin women or stylists [against each other]. It was just all great.'

Zendaya hasn't commented on the accidental twinning. However, Roach confirmed that she sent flowers to Sawai to congratulate her on her first Met. Sawai was just as gracious about the matter, taking to her Instagram stories to playfully comment, 'Celebrating the spirit of Black dandyism and Zendaya.'
She later added in a post, 'I know a lot of people have a lot to say, and trust me, I admire her too 🤣🤍 But most importantly, I'm so happy with my look, so please be happy for me too.'

In the end, the looks may have been closely related, but the truth was really in the details. With Zendaya's fit and flare pants as well as the addition of a vest, different from Sawai's wide-legged trousers and white gloves, fans are sure to appreciate the ingredients that went into creating two equally chic end results.

Benett/Dave Benett/WireImage) In January at this year's Golden Globes, Zendaya caused quite the stir on the red carpet when she debuted a sparkling engagement ring. Soon after, sources confirmed her engagement to Tom Holland having taken place during the holiday season prior. Expectedly, fans have been abuzz ever since, anticipating the pairs nuptials. Perhaps one of the most pressing topics of conversation has been what the known style icon will wear for the big day. According to her longtime stylist, Law Roach, the couple are in no rush to tie the knot. Zendaya attends the 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton on January 05, 2025 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by Matt Winkelmeyer/WireImage) Speaking to E!News earlier this month , Law Roach confirmed that, 'The process hasn't even started yet,' when asked for updates. 'Zendaya is working on so many movies,' he explained. 'She's now filming the next iteration of Dune, so she's away doing that. It's so many movies, so we have time. We have a lot of time.' Roach has been working with Zendaya since 2011 and will likely be styling the bride on the day. However, fans may be hard-pressed for details even once planning does start. The stylist referred to Zendaya as 'a secret bride', expressing that details of the day and the dress will be kept quiet. That being said, he teased the timeline, saying that he was, 'resting up for 2026.' Law Roach and Zendaya are seen backstage at the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony streaming on Disney+ at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on October 19, 2024 in Cleveland, Ohio. (Photo byfor The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame) The longtime stylist was also happy to speak on the couple's relationship when asked. 'I'm really excited because I know that they really love each other and they have for a really long time,' he gushed. 'The fact that the world has been able to share in that love story, I think it's really beautiful.' That we can squarely agree with. Further, whatever kind of bride Zendaya ends up being, her style history tells us it'll surely be a sartorial moment for the books.

Kim Kardashian Dons An Archival Mugler Bodysuit With A Barely There Waist
Kim Kardashian is no stranger to a dizzyingly tight corset, often leaving onlookers in varied states of awe, shock, and at times wincing in sympathy. This time around, the Skims founder is showing off an archival Mugler find, one which would not have looked out of place on a villainous femme fatale. The look, posted to her Instagram this week, consisted of a sheer full sleeved bodysuit and connected stockings, which both featured symmetrical sequin bands crawling up the mesh material. The bodysuit also featured a structured bodice and a jaw-grazing high neck which only served to heighten the enveloping feel of the look. Kardashian paired the ensemble with a large fur coat, straight from the original runway where the look debuted in 1998. From her hotel room fitting, she shared the snaps with the caption, 'Mugler Magic.' This is far from the socialite's first venture into bodices which take our (and one would imagine her) breath away. Just last year, Kardashian attended the 2024 Met Gala in a Maison Margiela look consisting of a silver applique corseted gown, paired with a cozy grey cardigan. A few years prior in 2019, she attended the same event in another Mugler creation; a custom wet-look latex dress which was corseted to unreal proportions. On that note, these looks definitely lean more towards performance pieces than attainable style inspiration. The reality star herself provided a glimpse into what wearing one of these bodices entails last year on an episode of The Kardashians. Filmed on the day of 2024 Met Gala, the episode showed Kardashian panicking and trying to remove the corset after the event. 'I am claustrophobic. I've never felt this way before, where I feel like I can't breathe,' she recounted in a confessional. She continued, 'I was like I'm going to die if you don't get this off of me right now.' So, while we all love a sartorial moment which simultaneously serves as a display of artful construction, we'll leave these displays to the celebrities.

Khloé Kardashian Details Every Cosmetic Procedure She's Had Over The Years

(Photo byfor The Met Museum/Vogue) In an era where filters and tweakments remain quietly prolific, Khloé Kardashian is bringing a rare dose of transparency to the conversation. After a viral Instagram Reel saw Dr Jonathan Betteridge dissecting her decade-long glow-up, the reality star did the unexpected—she replied. Candid and disarmingly detailed, Kardashian slid into the comments with a full breakdown of the procedures she credits for her ever-evolving visage. 'Yes, the photos are about 15 years apart,' she began, adding, 'I take this as a great compliment!' The Good American founder credits everyone from Dr Raj Kanodia (for her rhinoplasty) to SEV Laser and 7Q Spa, where she has had laser hair removal along her hairline and 'everywhere else', Botox, Sculptra, and a benign facial tumour removed. She's also had Sofwave (a non-invasive skin-tightening treatment favoured by sister Kim Kardashian before the Met Gala), collagen threads under the chin, and confessed to dabbling in fillers—'though none in the past few years.'

(Photo by ANDREAS BRANCH/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images) Khloé was also quick to emphasise the less clinical side of her transformation: an 80-pound weight loss, guided by trainer @ plus facials laced with peptides, vitamins—and yes—salmon sperm. 'But I'm never gonna do whale sperm,' she quipped on The Kardashians , poking fun at the beauty world's more extreme offerings. With celebrity candour often feeling more curated than confessional, Kardashian's transparency felt refreshing. 'In 2025, there are many other things we can do before surgery,' she wrote, adding with a wink, 'but when it's time, and if I choose to, I know some great doctors 😉💞.' While some read into the comment as a reference to recent speculation about her mother, Kris Jenner, undergoing a notable facelift, it's unclear if that was the intention. The move comes after her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, went viral for revealing the specifics of her breast augmentation, even tagging the doctor responsible. Though it's worth emphasising that most of these procedures are not for the faint of heart, and typically only sought out by people in the spotlight, the 41-year-old's honesty can hopefully inspire more stars to come forward with their own journeys. Particularly as we wrap our heads around the influence that elusive tweakment culture has on young people, it's important that those with large platforms feel empowered to share the realities of what we see. topics: Khloe Kardashian, The Kardashians, celebrity, celebrity news, Beauty, Beauty News, celebrity beauty, cosmetic procedures, Trending, Kylie Jenner, Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian
