Zendaya Advised To 'Tone It Down' In Braless Dinner Dress

Zendaya was both praised and critiqued for her recent red-carpet look, one she donned for the 34th annual Gotham Awards at the start of December. Showing off her glam dress for the night on Instagram while enjoying the soiree's dinner, the actress stunned in a backless white dress, going slinky and braless as she highlighted her incredible figure.

Channeling her signature classy style while reminding fans of her toned upper body, Zendaya hinted at her curves, something that one fan clearly picked up on.

Scroll for the photos, ones reposted to a fan account. Looking gorgeous as usual, Zendaya posed near a white-clothed table, matching it in her figure-flaunting gown.

Opting for a cut-out look from the Louis Vuitton designer she fronts, the Challengers star flashed her braless cleavage and some sideboob, showing off her tiny waist and with her dress' body-hugging fabrics highlighting her killer hips.

Looking relaxed as she enjoyed her dinner, Zendaya smiled at the camera, wearing her hair tied back in a sleek ponytail.

Users on The Daily Mail quickly saw the photos, most of which showed Zendaya posing for arrival ops. Topping replies with over 80 likes was a fan saying: "I love her style. However, I am exhausted with the myriad of award ceremonies for these people. No other industry pats itself on the back more than the entertainment industry." Another, meanwhile, said:

"Alluring .. She always pulls it's off .. beautiful woman." That said, some came in to criticize the former Disney star. Over 50 users upvoted a comment reading: "Zendaya is serving simple and understated elegance. She has to tone it down sometimes, as not every event demands a huge entrance."

Zendaya showed plenty of skin earlier this year when she channeled singer Cher in this show-stopping gold gown. Flashing her abs and cleavage in a cut-out number with a two-piece feel, the actress wowed at the 202 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction, making instant headlines for her fashion choice.

Meanwhile, the above photos shouted out Zendaya's 2024 movie, Challengers. In a caption to a post showing her in a teeny white top and matching tennis skirt, an Instagram fan account wrote: "Zendaya has officially been nominated at the @goldenglobes in the category ‘best female actor - motion picture - musical/comedy’ for her performance as tashi duncan/donaldson in luca guadagnino’s ‘challengers.'"

"Huge and heartfelt congratulations to zendaya for this incredible recognition," the fan continued.

The movie didn't just land Zendaya praise for her acting credits. It's landed her a multi-year brand ambassador deal with sportswear company On. Zendaya is also signed to designer Louis Vuitton and luxury jewelry brand Bulgari.
