Zendaya looked gorgeous in peach in a photo she shared for a birthday shoutout to Timothee Chalamet. Chalamet turned 27 on December 27, and his Dune co-star, Zendaya, marked the occasion with a shoutout.
The behind-the-scenes photo saw Zendaya and Chalamet preparing for a magazine photoshoot. Zendaya dazzled in a formfitting cutout peach dress while surrounded by stylists.
The dress was peppered with cutouts on the sleeves, neckline, and down the side of the skirt. It also featured a flattering V-neck, long sleeves, and a skirt with thick tassels on it.
Zendaya paired the dress with several gold bracelets and bejeweled rings. Among her rings, was her gorgeous signature yellow Bulgari diamond ring which sparked engagement rumors when she first bought it last year.
She opted to wear her brunette hair down for the photo and pushed it back from her face. While she seemed to be in the middle of getting her full glam makeup on, her smoky orange eyeshadow was already applied and complimented her dress beautifully.
Behind her, Chalamet could be seen mid-laugh in the background with his hands raised in the air.
