The theme of this year's Met Gala may be "Sleeping Beauties," but Zendaya isn't taking a snooze in the fashion department.
The actress and bona fide fashionista, who also serves as a Met Gala co-chair this year, turned heads at the Metropolitan Museum of Art when she unveiled her look for the night on the red carpet.
Zendaya stunned in an elegant period gown from from Rita Watnick and Lily et Cie. Watnick is the curator of Lily et Cie, a famed vintage clothing store in Beverly Hills that has helped style the likes of Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Aniston and Met Gala co-chair Jennifer Lopez.
The "Challengers" actress turned heads on the red carpet in a haunting, off-the-shoulder dress by Maison Margiela that combined ocean blue and forest green tones. The earthy frock, which takes inspiration from a '90s Dior dress, also featured a feathery headpiece and berry bundles pinned to the ensemble.

The "Euphoria" star has come a long way from her Met Gala debut in 2015, where the actress invoked a sun princess aesthetic in a flirty, black-and-red Fausto Puglisi dress. Her last gala appearance in 2019 saw the former Disney Channel actress pay homage to her career beginnings with a Cinderella-inspired ball gown by Tommy Hilfiger.

But high-fashion aspirations aside, Zendaya is just looking to enjoy the moment coming off her "Challengers" press tour.
"I'm trying to figure out ways to enjoy all of this," she told USA TODAY in April. "I get very anxious and nervous. It's a big deal. I've never opened a movie in this way before, so I'm just trying to enjoy the ride."
