Zendaya and longtime stylist Law Roach have trained us to know that their red carpet looks tell a story.
And for their latest trick, they resurrected work by the oft-forgotten but highly influential designer of the 1970s and ’80s, Willi Smith.
They worked with New York designer Laquan Smith to reimagine the ensemble for the Spider-Man: Brand New Day press run.
The designer made clothes for the everyman, with easy, great-looking separates—tunics, trousers, jackets, jumpsuits—made from quality fabric but sold at accessible prices.
And now, his work has been translated to today’s red carpet, where Zendaya and Roach reminded us that his legacy is worth brushing up on.
