Zendaya swaps tennis chic for 90s elegance on Jimmy Kimmel

Recently, Zendaya has been fervently promoting the "tennis core" trend. However, she embraced a radically different style for her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's show. Opting for sophistication, Zendaya dazzled in a blazer-style dress complete with a shirt and tie, a nod to the 90s fashion.

Just a few days before the premiere of "Challengers," in which Zendaya plays the lead, anticipation is mounting. The young star, known for her thematic fashion choices with stylist Law Roach, had embraced outfits inspired by her role as a tennis player in the movie. This included white mini dresses and even heels adorned with tennis balls. Yet, her appearance on the renowned "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" marked a shift to ultimate elegance.

Paparazzi eagerly awaited outside Jimmy Kimmel's studio, but Zendaya’s outfit was a delightful surprise. She was captured in a light gray double-breasted, tailored blazer dress, perfectly paired with a crisp white shirt and a geometric-patterned tie. The ensemble radiated sophistication.

The outfit Zendaya donned is from the Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 1992 collection. Her and Law Roach's penchant for vintage styles are well known, making this choice less surprising. She completed the look with silver jewelry and white stilettos, staples in her wardrobe during the "Challengers" promotional tour.
