Zendaya has wrapped her whirlwind bridal fashion-filled press tour for A24’s The Drama with one final cheeky look, capping off a series of method dressing moments inspired by wedding traditions. Starring alongside Robert Pattinson in the film about an engaged couple’s wedding week unraveling, the actress infused the global promotions with themes that doubled as nods to her own rumored nuptials with Tom Holland.
The Bridal Method Dressing Theme
Zendaya and her stylist Law Roach built the entire press tour around bridal method dressing, following the ‘something old, new, borrowed, and blue’ tradition. This creative approach directly mirrored the film’s plot, where a happily engaged couple faces unexpected revelations that derail their wedding week.
The tour spanned premieres in Los Angeles, Paris, Rome, and New York before concluding with a special screening in Los Angeles. Each look was carefully curated to tell a story, blending cinematic narrative with personal style.
Standout Fashion Moments
The fashion journey began with ‘something old’ at the Los Angeles premiere. Zendaya wore a Vivienne Westwood dress originally worn to the 2015 Academy Awards.
Paris saw ‘something new’ in the form of a custom Louis Vuitton dress featuring a dramatic back cut-out and an oversized black bow train. This look showcased fresh, modern bridal aesthetics.
For the Rome premiere, Zendaya borrowed ‘something borrowed’ from fellow actress Cate Blanchett. She wore a loaned black Armani gown from Blanchett’s closet, custom by Giorgio Armani Privé.
The New York premiere at Regal Union Square featured ‘something blue’ with a feathered Schiaparelli couture creation. This striking look was paired with Tiffany & Co. jewelry for added elegance.
The tour concluded with a thematic graphic tee reading ‘To be loved is to be known’ by Emily Dawn Long. Zendaya paired this with a Louis Vuitton fall 2013 lace-trimmed pencil skirt in mauve and violet, completing the bridal narrative.

Behind the Scenes Collaborations
Stylist Law Roach played a crucial role in curating this immersive fashion experience. His collaboration with Zendaya created a cohesive narrative that extended beyond typical press tour outfits.
For the New York premiere, hairstylist Ursula Stephen created a look that complemented the elegant Schiaparelli gown. She described the approach, saying, ‘The dress was so elegant and we didn’t want to do something predictable, so we went with the total opposite- sleek. Wet-ish. Almost edgy but not quite. Like when a bird gets caught in the rain.’
Ties to Personal Life and Future Projects
The wedding-themed tour inevitably fueled speculation about Zendaya’s relationship with longtime partner Tom Holland. While neither has confirmed any wedding plans, the thematic choices created a clever parallel between her professional and personal narratives.
As The Drama press tour concludes, Zendaya faces an exceptionally busy 2026. The film opens in theaters on April 3, 2026, with the New York premiere scheduled for April 2.
She then moves directly into other major projects. Euphoria season 3 premieres on April 12, 2026, followed by The Odyssey on July 17, 2026.
Spider-Man 4 arrives on July 31, 2026, and Dune 3 concludes her packed year on December 18, 2026. Reflecting on this intense schedule, Zendaya recently told The Hollywood Reporter, ‘I really appreciate everyone who supports any of the movies or supports my career in any kind of way. I’m deeply appreciative, and like I said, I just hope you guys don’t get sick of me this year, because, I’ll tell you what, I’m disappearing for a little bit. I’m going to have to go into hiding for just a little bit.’
