Zendaya Masters Edgy Tailoring in a Backless Vest and Barrel Trousers

At this point, to call Zendaya a style icon feels almost too small of a label. The super-superstar is more than just a trendsetter, and she's certainly never a follower—Zendaya is what fashion is, or at least should be. The actress represents a new guard of celebrities who aren't afraid to push sartorial boundaries (look to her always-exciting red carpet looks, for instance). And as of Tuesday, April 25, she's officially entered a new era of her fashion: While promoting Dune: Part Two at CinemaCon, Zendaya wore an outfit by Louis Vuitton, her first outing since announcing her position as house ambassador for the legacy label.

For the Las Vegas–based event, Zendaya wore a slate gray vest with a deep, plunging V-neckline and contrasting houndstooth base paneling. Her sleeveless top was completely backless save for a black leather belt slung around the back of her hips (insert business-in-the-front-party-in-the-back joke: here). With her sultry waistcoat, the Emmy winner wore ballooning barrel pants made of woven wool in a warm brown hue.
