The dress is her most shocking outfit thus far in 2026. White halter bodice with molded cups and sculptural cutouts, a beaded silver fringe skirt catching every flash, hair in a braided updo. Athena, basically.
The gown is custom Jacquemus, styled by Law Roach, and it leans all the way into the film’s ancient Greek register: a structured white halter bodice with molded cups and keyhole cutouts at the waist and hip, dropping into a long silver-to-white beaded fringe skirt that moved with the light.
She finished it with a braided updo, loose tendrils around the face, and a sparkling crystal choker with matching earrings. It’s the same Grecian direction she and Roach worked at the July 5 photocall at IET London the day before, and it’s clearly the through-line for her press run.
“The Odyssey” is Christopher Nolan’s follow-up to “Oppenheimer,” shot entirely on IMAX, with Matt Damon as Odysseus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Tom Holland as Telemachus, and Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Charlize Theron, and Samantha Morton in the ensemble. The Odeon Luxe Leicester Square premiere on July 6 lands 11 days ahead of the film’s wide theatrical release on July 17, 2026. Zendaya plays Athena in the film.
