During the promotional tour for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Zendaya (29) pulled off one of her most talked-about appearances - with a bargain find of all things. At a photo call at UGC Ciné Cité Bercy in Paris, the actress appeared on Wednesday wearing an oversized vintage T-shirt with a Spider-Man motif, paired with nothing but a pair of Christian Louboutin pumps. The images from the red carpet spread rapidly - and interest grew even more when her longtime stylist Law Roach (47) revealed the secret behind the look.
A find for 34.99 dollars
The T-shirt doesn't come from a designer collection, but from eBay. For just 34.99 dollars, Roach had snagged the used piece there, as he revealed in his Instagram story. "Style doesn't always have to cost a fortune," the stylist wrote, sharing a screenshot of the original eBay listing. There, the shirt was listed in size 2XL - the perfect size for Zendaya to wear it as a dress. The condition was described as "good, used."
Fans search for the same model
As soon as Zendaya presented the look, fans went searching for exactly this vintage shirt. That it could now carry a completely different price tag is obvious: a comparable item was subsequently offered for 200 dollars, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The appearance also fits into a larger trend - more and more designers and stylists are turning to eBay in search of special pieces.
Zendaya and method dressing
The background of the fashion offensive is a film release: Together with her husband Tom Holland (30), Zendaya is eagerly anticipating the premiere of Holland's fourth Spider-Man adventure. Accordingly, the series of promotional events is packed. The eBay shirt is just one of many statements: Previously, the actress had celebrated her concept known as "method dressing" - with a spider-inspired archive dress by Giorgio Armani, a sparkling red-and-blue two-piece by Versace, and a custom-made ensemble by Louis Vuitton.
