‘This is my something old’: Zendaya brings back her 2015 Oscars dress at The Drama Premiere in a nostalgic fashion twist

Hollywood star Zendaya made a stunning fashion statement at the wedding-themed premiere of The Drama by wearing the same dress she debuted at the 2015 Oscars. The choice, blending nostalgia with elegance, perfectly suited the film’s wedding backdrop. Zendaya reflected on her decision, noting the dress held personal significance from that milestone in her career and also complemented the film’s theme.




The gown, originally worn more than a decade ago, became an instant talking point on the red carpet. Zendaya’s stylist, Law Roach, helped bring the vision together, aligning with the classic wedding adage, “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” The dress resonated not just as a fashion statement but also as a celebration of Zendaya’s journey in Hollywood.




Directed by Kristoffer Borgli, The Drama stars Zendaya as Emma Hardwood, a bookstore employee from Louisiana, opposite Robert Pattinson as Charlie Thompson, a British museum director. The story follows the couple as their relationship hits a dramatic snag just days before their wedding. The film marks Borgli’s second collaboration with A24, following the 2023 release Dream Scenario. Known for psychologically charged and high-concept storytelling, Borgli continues to explore complex human relationships with this latest feature.




Zendaya’s schedule in 2026 is packed with high-profile projects. On April 12, the third and likely final season of Euphoria premieres on HBO, continuing her critically acclaimed role. On the big screen, she is set to star in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, releasing July 17. She also headlines Spider-Man: Brand New Day (July 31) and Dune: Part 3 (December 18), further cementing her position as one of Hollywood’s most in-demand stars. With a mix of blockbuster franchises and auteur-driven projects, Zendaya’s 2026 promises to be one of her busiest and most visible years yet.
