British Vogue’s May cover star Zendaya is smashing the fashion game on the Challengers press tour, giving #TennisCore a run for its money. From rocking a pleated sparkly minidress paired with tennis ball-shaped heels by Loewe to a Thom Browne ensemble with a sequined, pleated skirt and embroidered tennis racket, she’s set the bar high. And let’s not forget her bold neon-green gown by Celia Kritharioti, perfectly matching the hue of a tennis ball, complete with a plunging neckline and a cheeky tennis ball detail at her waist. Her latest sartorial feat? A runway spin on a timeless tennis essential.

At the LA premiere of her latest film, accompanied by co-stars Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor, the actor stunned in a bespoke look crafted by creative director Simon Porte Jacquemus and his eponymous brand’s design team. Her attire boasted a chic twist on a tennis polo collared top, elegantly rendered in a lush baby-pink hue and transformed into a coordinated two-piece featuring a full, ’60s-inspired A-line midi-skirt silhouette. Adding a touch of flair to the waist-grazing, midriff-baring ensemble was a clasp detail, complemented by a drawstring keyhole, securing the top and skirt together quite literally by a string. Completing the look were a baby-pink headband adorned with a bow detail, pink sling-back heels and exquisite gold Bulgari jewellery.
