The luminous Tommy Hilfiger dress included poofy sleeves, a bustier and a jaw-dropping full skirt.
According to \"Vogue,\" the look was inspired by Zendaya's evolving career.
\"[It’s] the total opposite of every character I think she’s ever played and a huge stretch from K.C. Undercover,\" Roach explained. \"It’s almost like this is the last hoorah and the last time people will identify her as a Disney princess—which isn’t a bad thing.\"

Zendaya showed a closer look of her glowing Cinderella-inspired dress from underneath on Instagram, and thanked everyone who took part in creating it. \"Thank you to all the very very smart people who somehow built and made this dress work,\" she said.
This isn't the first time Zendaya has nearly stolen the show at the Met Gala, and we are sure it won't be the last.
Leading up to this year's affair, Roach posted a couple of past looks from Zendaya on the red carpet that further prove....this is totally her thing.
