Zendaya’s Fashion Debut: The Speedy Rise of a Style Icon
American actress Zendaya, wore a bold Burberry SS25 outfit in New York, just days after its London Fashion Week debut.
Zendaya is always ahead of the fashion curve; she rocked a fresh-off-the-runway look when spotted in Tribeca, New York.
ZENDAYA TURNS HEADS
But this wasn’t just any outfit. Less than a week ago, it debuted at London Fashion Week, and Zendaya was already making it her own.
The 28-year-old star wore a piece from Burberry’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection. It showcased just days earlier at London’s National Theatre, according to Elle.
Styled by her long-time fashion collaborator Law Roach, Zendaya looked effortlessly chic as she strolled the streets of New York.
ZENDAYA AND BURBERRY
Roach, who was seated front row at the Burberry show, must have had his eye on the look from the start.
Zendaya wasted no time. “She’s always been a trendsetter,” fans say, “and this just proves it.”
The outfit is classic Daniel Lee, he is Burberry’s creative director, according to Marie Claire.
Known for combining structure with ease, the ensemble featured a crisp military-inspired white jacket paired with a flowing black maxi skirt.
THE RUNWAY LOOK
The buttons on the jacket were Burberry’s signature, giving a nod to the brand’s iconic style.
On the runway, the look was accessorised with a large tote bag and chunky mules. Zendaya, however, added her own flair, opting for lace-up heeled sandals instead.
The most striking element of the outfit? A subtle but unmistakable Burberry check belt around Zendaya’s waist, according to Rain Magazine.
“The check is back,” one fashion critic wrote, “and Zendaya’s giving us a masterclass in how to wear it.”
ZENDAYA THE TRENDSETTER
The understated belt made one thing clear: Burberry’s signature print is set for a revival.
It’s no surprise that Zendaya was the first to step out in the new collection.
“Zendaya doesn’t follow trends. She sets them,” commented another fashion enthusiast.
The speed at which this look made it from London’s runway to New York’s streets is impressive.
A FAST TURNAROUND
Fashion insiders praised the teams responsible for the fast turnaround.
“It’s a testament to the industry’s efficiency,” said one stylist. “Getting a look from the catwalk to a celebrity in just a few days is no small feat.”
Zendaya’s Burberry moment is already making waves. Fashion blogs are buzzing, and style watchers are eagerly noting the return of Burberry’s check print.
A STYLE ICON
“It’s subtle.” one expert said. “We’ll be seeing a lot more of it in the coming months.”
This isn’t the first time Zendaya has surprised us with her style.
From red carpets to street style, she’s consistently pushing boundaries. With Law Roach by her side, it’s clear she’ll continue to lead the fashion pack.
In just one night, Zendaya gave the world a glimpse of what’s next in fashion. It’s official: Burberry’s SS25 collection has arrived, and Zendaya is once again the first to wear it.
