Zendaya arrived in her usual whirlwind of style, grace, and cool to the 93rd Acadamy Awards on Sunday in custom Valentino couture and, of course, dripping in Bulgari diamonds (valued at over $6 million). The color of the dress, a unique canary yellow, was inspired by a host of references. Zendaya’s longtime stylist Law Roach says that the yellow diamond in the ring she wore to the ceremony was the “piece that started it all.” Since joining the jewelry brand in early 2020 as a global ambassador, Zendaya has had her pick of diamonds, including a major necklace on her ELLE cover.
For the Oscars, Law Roach was inspired by the fine jewelry brand’s fun and wearable pieces, saying “the great part about Bulgari is that you can wear it your way.” The four pieces she and Law chose complemented her gown perfectly and had everyone on Instagram seeing yellow.
