After years of consistency as the belle of the ball, Zendaya’s ascendance to reigning queen of the Met Gala has been brewing for years. But last night, arriving in a Maison Margiela Artisanal gown by John Galliano that referenced his early work at Dior, it was confirmed: she is simply the best of the best.
Not only was there a marked absence of our other Met Gala mothers (no Rihanna, no Bella Hadid, no Beyoncé, no Blake Lively), Zendaya did enough to hold her own even in they had arrived.
