Zendaya’s Bold Valentino Gown at the 2021 Academy Awards
The dress, designed by Pierpaolo Piccioli, featured a bold, floor-length silhouette with daring cutouts at the midriff, showcasing her abs and adding a modern edge to the look. Made from a lightweight, flowing fabric, the gown captured a vibrant, almost luminescent quality under the red carpet lights, perfectly aligning with Zendaya’s reputation for fearless fashion choices.
The neon yellow hue paid homage to springtime energy and was one of the night’s most memorable looks. Accessorizing with Bulgari diamonds valued at over $6 million, the K.C. Undercover star completed her look with Jimmy Choo shoes.

Specifically, she wore Jimmy Choo’s strappy “Minny” sandals, which feature an open-toe design and a sleek 4-inch (100mm) stiletto heel.
The heels were crafted in a vibrant yellow shade, perfectly mirroring the gown’s bold hue. This created a cohesive, monochromatic look that amplified the outfit’s striking effect.
