Zendaya cemented her title as the queen of the red carpet on Monday night as she arrived at the premiere for Challengers at the Palazzo Barberini in Rome.
The actress, 27, once again pulled out all the stops in a sophisticated all-white ensemble, in reference to tennis whites for the tennis-themed film.
She donned a tailored white blazer and added a sultry edge by going topless underneath to leave her cleavage on full display.
Zendaya added a long coordinating skirt, which boasted a thigh-high slit to show off a glimpse of her toned legs.
The stunner added an extra few inches to her already towering frame with a pair of matching white high heels.

She ensured all eyes were on her with a slew of diamonds, wearing multiple sparkly rings and a striking silver necklace resembling a snake.
The Dune star swept her hair up in an elegant updo and completed her impeccable look with a bronzed palette of makeup.
Zendaya has been travelling across Europe on the promotional tour for Challengers, appearing at the Paris premiere on Saturday, while she is due to attend the UK premiere on Wednesday
She plays rising tennis star Tashi Duncan in the film, who attracts the attention of fellow players and best friends, Patrick and Art, creating a steamy love triangle.
Starring opposite her as her two leading men are West Side Story star Mike Faist and The Crown’s Josh O’Connor.
Zendaya worked with tennis pro and former player Brad Gilbert to prepare for the part.
The film’s director Luca Guadagnino has gushed about her talents, telling Variety last October: ‘She’s wonderful. I mean, wow.’
‘We edited the movie and we almost actually don’t use any of her double. She’s so good,’ adding, ‘all three leads spent like three months working very hard—technically, athletically.’

Practicing for the film appears to have rubbed off on Zendaya, as she and her boyfriend Tom Holland attended the BNP Paribas Open last month.
The Emmy-winning actress and the British heartthrob, 27, looked loved-up at the Women’s Final in Indian Wells Tennis Garden in California.
The couple recently brushed off split rumours as they put on a united front at the premiere for Zendaya’s film Dune: Part Two in London in February.
Speculation that the public’s golden couple had split began circulating in January when Zendaya unfollowed Tom on Instagram.
However, Zendaya unfollowed everyone and Tom still followed her.
Adding to the concern of fans was the fact that the Golden Globe winning actress and the Spider-Man actor haven’t been photographed together since October 25, when they were snapped grocery shopping in Los Angeles.
But again, a source with direct knowledge says the couple were seen together as recently as New Year’s Eve, according to TMZ.
Also, at the Critics Choice Awards 2024, Tom shared several rare comments about his and Zendaya’s private life.

Speaking to Extra, Tom said: ‘Zendaya and I will, every now and then, watch Spider-Man 1 and reminisce about being 19 and making those movies again.
‘I love those movies, and I love savoring those moments, so I try not to watch them as often as I would maybe like to because it’s so special.
‘It’s such a luxury, such a gift to be able to sit down and sort of relive your youth.’
He also divulged that the Euphoria actress supports him in his career, explaining that she watched his series The Crowded Room frequently and gave him feedback.
Tom said: ‘She watched [The Crowded Room] with me while we were editing it — I would send her episodes and asked her what she thought, so she definitely has seen it more times than I would have expected her to see it.’
He and Zendaya finally went public with their relationship in 2021 but it is thought that they began dating as early as 2017.
