Instead of a dress, she arrived at tonight's ceremony wearing a white button-up cropped very, very short and a long, carpet-sweeping sequin gown. Both pieces were shimmering and shining as she walked down the red carpet. Two armloads of glittery diamond bracelets and a simple necklace finished the look, as well as a sophisticated updo. The look came via Valentino, which makes sense as the Emmy winner is a spokesperson for the storied Italian label.

Still, her film, Dune, is up for Best Picture as well as Original Score, Makeup and Hairstyling, Costumes, and a slew of other technical categories. Zendaya hasn't been nominated for an Academy Award, ever, but with Dune's sequel coming soon, fans are all but guaranteed a nom on the horizon — and plenty of opportunities for Zendaya and Roach to flex their fashion muscles.
