Zendaya's molten metal bodysuit is naked dressing for the year 10,000

In London's Leicester Square, the preparations for the hotly anticipated Dune: Part Two world premiere have been underway for a few days already. Literal tonnes of sand have been brought in for an alternative take on the red carpet, a *huge* sun-like light installation has been erected outside the iconic cinema, and fans have been queuing for hours for a chance to see the film's stars in the flesh.

Florence Pugh was the first of the famous cast to hit the red carpet tonight, in a gloriously dramatic brown sequin-covered hooded dress custom-made for the occasion by Valentino. And she was soon joined by the equally well-dressed likes of Anya Taylor-Joy (in some kind of chic nun's habit that we're lowkey loving...?!), Timothée Chalamet, Léa Seydoux and Greta Gerwig.

But let's be honest, we were all *really* waiting for one thing and one thing only... And that's Zendaya's arrival. Why? Because not only is she one of the biggest Hollywood stars of the moment – and a whole generation! – but because her red carpet style choices are the stuff of actual legend. And having already nailed it *many* times throughout the Dune: Part Two press tour, we just knew she was going to pull out all the stops for the film's official world premiere.

We're pleased to say it was *very* well worth the wait...

Yep, Zendaya just stepped out on the red carpet in one of the most out-there outfits we've ever seen her wear: a silver molten metal bodysuit with perspex panels that's giving naked dressing for the year 10,000.

There could only be a genius like Law Roach behind something like this, and indeed it was his idea to dress the actress in the robot-style Thierry Mugler look from the designer's AW 1995 Couture collection. Here's the original in all its glory:

A special mention must also go to whoever thought of topping the whole (already MAJOR) look off with a huge diamond and sapphire necklace too... Iconic AF, amirite!?

We've said it once and we'll say it again: Zendaya + Law Roach are a match made in literal fashion heaven. And long may they reign supreme!
