Zendaya in Alexander McQueen at the Spider-Man: Brand New Day Fan Event in Amsterdam

For the Amsterdam fan event of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Zendaya and image architect Law Roach evolved her signature method dressing by channeling dark, gothic romance instead of literal superhero themes. Stepping out in an ensemble from the Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2026 collection by Sean McGirr, the actress wore a sheer black silk georgette mini dress featuring metallic-embroidered floral lace that referenced the structural geometry of spiderwebs. She layered the piece under a dramatic, sweeping lurex opera coat complete with a floor-grazing train and voluminous, oversized satin balloon cuffs. Grounded by her signature Christian Louboutin ‘So Kate’ pointed-toe pumps in black satin and a delicate Jessica McCormack yellow gold band, the high-drama look balanced cinematic themes with haute couture craftsmanship.
